Ok... You left out your example data for 'filer', but you gave enough detail that I think I can see what you are trying to do. That said, I think that I would split this up into two different routines: One routine would deal with unpacking the "rows" (or "inverted columns) from your data and ame

Hello--I was out of the house for much of today, so I haven't been able to respond until now. Thanks to all who responded with suggestions! Unfortunately, none of them worked as is, probably because you're used to a different way of approaching the problem and also because I probably should have

We have just completed the first episode of the Array Cast, a podcast all about the Array Programming languages. Hosted by Conor Hoekstra, with co-hosts Adám Brudzewsky (APL), Stephen Taylor (APL, q), and Bob Therriault (J), this bi-weekly podcast will cover developments in the array programming

Depends what Harvey means by "values",  I suppose. I assumed he meant scalars.    Otherwise my observation is pretty useless! Cheers, Mike On 15/05/2021 19:01, Joey K Tuttle wrote: I'm probably wrong, but when I first saw Harvey's request, I thought by amend he might be visualizing something

Sorry... another early send! You’ve already had some helpful, constructive, replies. All I’ve got to add is to wonder why you’re working with boxed data if your data are as regular as your example suggests. If you really do have m rows of n boxed numeric values, why not just open it up w

None has been talking about base 10 logs here. The fact that scaling a logarithm is equivalent to using a different base doesn’t mean changing the base mirrors the semantics of every occurrence of (factor&*&^.) Sometimes you just want to /scale this value up/. And the base you’d come up with that

Hmm... why would we do that? ^. gives the natural log, if we wanted to work with base 10 logs we'd be using 10&^. instead of a bare ^. and if we're treating logs as percentages we'd probably be working with log10 (But what is the domain where we'd be wanting logs-as-percent?) Thanks, -- Raul
