Sorry for the scrambled mess below (produced by my e-mail client) ...
As a newbie, and looking at the 'adbecf' example, I've found the term 'Interweave' quite appropriate. (This has sounded to me like a one-to-one relationship; but as a non-native speaker I might be thorougly mistaken.)
I then went on to build this example, which took me a bit further in my understanding of what is going on:
q=. 'Fed' r=. 'Bur' s=. 'Inv' > q ;r ;s Fed Bur Inv ,q ,.r ,.s FBIeundrv which is simply the above read in colum by column ... Maybe this helps someone to find another shorthand description/phrase. -M At 2016-03-11 02:45, you wrote:
Yes, "the order in which they appear" is circular. Like I said, I'm still looking for the right words... I can't beat Ken's phrasing for accurate brevity, but it's longer than you want for the first-line description for a newcomer; and it requires that you know what 'item' means. "Row-major order" would be perfect if everyone knew the term, but I think it's passe. Marshall's "reading order", supplemented by a note giving Ken's description, and an example, is the best I've heard yet. Other ideas"?
