Thanks for replying.

I'm confused about two things.

(1) I'm worried I haven't explained myself well.
I mean I want to find all x given g(x) is true for some function g.

i.e. the set { x | g(x) is true }
(You may have answered this, I need to read your example more carefully, but 
this leads me to problem 2...)

(2) I don't understand what 
←→
means in terms of J. These are not ASCII characters or J primitives.

Thanks.
