That thinking sounds about right, to me.
(Also... I think it's symmetric: having the tokenizer handle
representations of both noun lists and character lists rather than
having it handle one but not the other.)
And, we're beginning to get into the territory Roger Hui was asking about.
Thanks,

Thank you for the thoughtful and lucid reply.
If you don't mind, let me check my understanding.
So, essentially, we keep forefront the general concept of numeric words
requiring speculative tokenization in the sense you describe.

Thank you for the confirmation.
So in these two cases, word splitting happens exactly the same if we use em()
instead, correct? Is there a particular reason to *not* use em() though? As far
as I can tell, the main difference would be in the traces. I would really like
to know if ev() was chosen

Hrm. It seems I am not articulating my question all that well.
I wish to ask something very specific. Is there a particular technical reason
for ev()ing (output code 4) from the 6 (num) state when encountering a Q
(quote) or X (other) character? Unless I am misunderstanding, there is no way

Can you provide a simple string to show the dyad ;: model accept quote
inside number?

Just a "number" that happens to contain whitespace? Maybe I am misunderstanding
you, though.
The output codes in the state table can trigger emits (i.e. em(i,j,r,c)) or
emit vectors (i.e. ev(i,j,r,c)). I'm curious why the state table row for
numbers chooses to use

Words that just happen to contain spaces.
I just realized, however, that my original email example lets number words
contain trailing spaces. So, I agree that the cell "0 5" in the state table
needs to be what it is. However, if we're in state num and encounter a qu

By "other", I was referring to the 'X' character class defined in the input
mapping table. I believe your example never hits this column of the state table.
Perhaps it's clearer to just focus o
4r5 is a valid number in J. Would this explain the behaviour?

Words that just happen to contain spaces.
I just realized, however, that my original email example lets number words
contain trailing spaces. So, I agree that the cell "0 5" in the state table

What would it emit instead? If you emit individual scalar numbers, you
then have to change the parser (

numbers juxtaposed.

Just beginning to learn J this week, I find myself binging the documentation
and have some questions regarding J lexing. In particular, my question is about
the sample J lexer presented in the dyadic ;: entry of the dictionary:
