Still LOL. I should say that I'm not after forcing J (or j) into an ironclad, logical, rational straightjacket. I recognize that I treat J best as a natural language. Just as I don't worry too much about fine points of grammar (but do get perturbed when the local newspaper writes "there were a couple cars on the street"), I don't worry too much about the really fine points here. I do want to understand J well enough to use it as a written as well as computational language or notation, though, and thus my question. You've all helped me, and I think I understand it better. I don't think I could write a summary such as Dan or Henry (or Roger) could, though.
