Can't pretend I understand much of it, but I intend to take it apart in
tonight's "Learning J" session!  Great to see all this stuff.

Now forgive me if I'm missing something in all this (as a newb) but
wouldn't a simpler way of generating binomial coefficients just be:

   !/~i.10

1 1 1 1 1  1  1  1  1   1
0 1 2 3 4  5  6  7  8   9
0 0 1 3 6 10 15 21 28  36
0 0 0 1 4 10 20 35 56  84
0 0 0 0 1  5 15 35 70 126
0 0 0 0 0  1  6 21 56 126
0 0 0 0 0  0  1  7 28  84
0 0 0 0 0  0  0  1  8  36
0 0 0 0 0  0  0  0  1   9
