Hi everyone. Verbs formed by (m&|@^) are implemented by modular exponentiation:
---
5 (10&|@^) 40000
5
7 (14&|@^) 40000
7
11 (22&|@^) 40000
22
---
However, it appears that (m1,m2,...)&|@:^ doesn't get the same
treatment and falls back to power-then-residue, causing it to blow up
for large exponents:
---
5 7 11 (10 14 22&|@:^) 400 4000 40000
|NaN error
| 5 7 11 (10 14 22&|@:^)400 4000 40000
---
Is it possible to get the equivalent of (m1,m2,...)&|@:^ using the
special code for atomic m&|@^ ?
