The function below causes J to wait for input as expected and gives me
temp 0
continue for more iterations ? put in y for yes
y
answer received
new total number of iterations
6
temp=: verb define
sco ' continue for more iterations ? put in y for yes'
ans=.(1!:1) 1
sco ' answer received'
if. ans='y' do.
sco' new total number of iterations'
tnit=.(1!:1) 1
end.
0$0
)
When I include the code inside the verb in another verb I get the
following . J does not wait for input
continue for more iterations ? put in y for yes
answer received
According to foreign conjunctions temp should not actually work because
(1!:1) 1 is not supposed to work in scripts.
How do I get J to wait for input from the keyboard?
cheers
