Depending on undocumented behavior is usually a bad idea. Just because
A0 = 'ZZZ' happens to work in this release is no guarantee that the
vendor will continue to support this behavior in the future. The fact
this doesn't work in other Pick flavors or variants makes me want to shy
away from

So A0 = X is a way quicker way of writing A = X : @fm : A
This doesn't appear to work on Unidata (7.1.x). I get

Hi Dennis,

I'm not sure that this is a safe assumption. I have taken a quick look at
the documentation for various mv products and they tend not to define what

Trying your example with UV does not produce the result

I agree with you, this work well in UniVerse, but I get ZZZ]XXX]DEF]XYZ

Hi Dennis
On UniVerse the output is:
ZZZ]XXX]DEF]XYZ
Which makes more sense, since the A0 insert the value at the beginning
After each step the result of A is as follows:
A='DEF' DEF
A2='XYZ' DEF]XYZ
A0='XXX' XXX]DEF]XYZ
A0='ZZZ' ZZZ]XXX]DEF]XYZ

That is then flavour dependent - in information flavour there
is a zero element , that's where the overflowing elements go

Hi Mats,
Yes, a dimensioned array has a zero element in Information/Ideal/PIopen
