Thanks for the explanation. That worked. On Thu, Jan 9, 2014 at 12:27 PM, Raul Miller wrote: > In your ((Y+X)*2) the grammar of your argument to xy matches the > grammar of this sentence: > > ((+++)+2) > > Since this has a noun on the right, J will try to evaluate the > expression before passing

Re: [Jprogramming] blunt verbs (tacit x and y)

In your ((Y+X)*2) the grammar of your argument to xy matches the grammar of this sentence: ((+++)+2) Since this has a noun on the right, J will try to evaluate the expression before passing it to xy. And if I recall correctly, X is defined to give a domain error when used without a right argument

Neat, it looks like it would be helpful for beginners to tacit. I may have found a bug though or some unexpected behavior to me at least. addMultiply2=: ((Y + X)*2) xy |syntax error: X These work add=: (Y + X) xy 2 add 3 5 addMultiply=: ((Y + X)*X) xy 2 addMultiply 3 10 On Wed, Jan 8, 201
