This also wouldn't work for negative ranks or _ . Given that you can only run a ranked verb with a noun if you are going to code tacitly, the only possibility for putting u"(v y) y into tacit code is one like this that lists all the possibilities. In other words--there is no possible way to make it pretty.

Hypothetically, we could set up a gerund of the form u"0`(u"1)`(u"2)`(u"3)`(u"4)`...`(u"127)@.v This relies on 127 (or some other arbitrary integer) being equivalent to infinity for rank calculations. That said, I have not bothered to work out the details of how I would build that gerund. And, obviously, treatment of the dyadic case would be a lot bulkier than treatment of the monadic case. -- Raul ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
