Probably best to brake the operation down into smaller operations and see
where the actual problem is:
datesperyear=. 365
master=. datesperyear 3 $ 0 NB. this gives syntax error
|syntax error
| master=. datesperyear 3$0
datesperyear 3 $ 0 NB. this gives syntax error
|syntax error
| datesperyear 3$0
3 $ 0
0 0 0
datesperyear 3
|syntax error
| datesperyear 3
master=. 365 3 $ 0 NB. this does not give error
master
...
0 0 0
datesperyear, 3
365 3
