I posted these examples not because they are wrong or right, but to emphasize the difference between the tacit versions of right and wrong expressions. The pattern is the same. If it is wrong it is missing a ~ . My thought was that it might be helpful for finding a correction for the problem.
why=: 13 :'y+y' NB. wrong why + why=: 13 :'y-y' NB. right why -~ why=: 13 :'y*y' NB. wrong why * why=: 13 :'y%y' NB. right why %~ why=: 13 :'y+y+y' NB. wrong why ] + + why=: 13 :'y-y-y' NB. right why ] - -~ why=: 13 :'y*y*y' NB. wrong why ] * * why=: 13 :'y%y%y' NB. right why ] % %~ All the spaces between the lines in my message didn't help to demonstrate what I was trying to show.
