I guess you're trying to achieve f =: >:f NB. increment f
I also guess you've read about hooks and assumed that (=: >:) f will be parsed as f =: >: f which is what you require. The reason it doesn't work is that =: is a "copula" (assignment) and not a verb. Only verbs can be used in hooks. > Date: Wed, 21 Apr 2010 11:33:45 -0400 > From: rjkub...@gmail.com > To: programming@jsoftware.com > Subject: [Jprogramming] f += 1 > > f=:3 > (=: >:) f > |syntax error > | (=:>:)f > > Why is this not allowed? > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm _________________________________________________________________ http://clk.atdmt.com/UKM/go/197222280/direct/01/ Do you have a story that started on Hotmail?
