I have some difficulties interpreting the meaning of Catalogue in the
Vocabulary. It explains that {y forms ... its shape being the chain of the
shapes of the opened items of y .
I understand that as :
y=. 'ht';'ao';'gtw'
]r=. {y
┌───┬───┬───┐
│hag│hat│haw│
├───┼───┼───┤
│hog│hot│how│
└───┴───┴───┘
┌───┬───┬───┐
│tag│tat│taw│
├───┼───┼───┤
│tog│tot│tow│
└───┴───┴───┘
$r NB. Its shape is not
2 2 3
$>y NB. the chain of the shapes of the opened items of y .
3 3
And it goes on saying that ... The common shape of the boxed results is $y .
$y
3
Can someone explain what I am missing.
Thanks.
