I believe it is a subtle display/editing error. When you copy >> toss =: (dice =: (6 6 6#:12 145 157 185 197 215)<@:{"1 2 (#:i.6){' >> o') {~ 2 10 ?@$ 6:
and edit out the backspace and >>'s you must leave a space in front of the o so that you see ' o' not 'o' . Beware of line wrap above and below. toss =: (dice =: (6 6 6#:12 145 157 185 197 215)<@:{"1 2 (#:i.6){' o') {~ 2 10 ?@$ 6: toss'' +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ |o |o |o o|o |o o|o |o |o o|o |o | | | | | | o | | | o | | | | o| o|o o| o|o o| o| o|o o| o| o| +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ |o o|o | | |o o| |o |o |o |o | |o o| | o | o | o | o | o | | | | |o o| o| | |o o| | o| o| o| o| +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ On 12/2/2011 5:25 AM, Linda Alvord wrote: > I'm still stuck with getting this to run in j701jhs .
