PLANNED MAINTENANCE: Dyalog servers will be down for maintenance on Tuesday 24th April 2018 starting at 9am UTC. We expect this to last approximately 4 hours during which time our website and other external services will be unavailable.
Hey @Adám, if/when you have some time later today, could you lend me a hand in solving this challenge? I want to learn how to properly use the ⌺ thingy and it seems like a good challenge for such
Can anyone enlighten me on using ⍤ in place of index notation for ↑? ↑[0.5] and ↑[1.5] feels weird, and apparently there's a way to use ⍤ instead, but I haven't found any clear documentation on the topic.
@Adám I challenge you to (whenever you're not that busy) reduce ($₁%₁$₁)%₁$₁%₁$₁ to 5 tokens or less, given that $ₓ represents a monadic function and %ₓ represents a dyadic function (both single tokens), here is mine with ⍺⍺ being monadic and ⍵⍵ being dyadic
@JackHenahan Actually, I just tried and it doesn't work like I expected, so I've sent an email to our internal language group to ask about it, and I'll get back to you.
@EriktheOutgolfer Are all the $₁s the same function?
@EriktheOutgolfer If so, %₁⍨⍣2$₁ and %₁⍨$₁%₁$₁ are both 5 tokens. (Didn't look at spoiler.)
@J.Sallé I don't think ⌺ is a good fit for that. ⌺ is good when you need to make a decision for each cell according to consistent rules. Here, each cell needs to be treated differently. Have a good weekend!
@ngn @J.Sallé @Adám Thanks for the pointers. I was just going through the APL tutor with Dyalog and got curious about ⍤. Looking forward to hearing what @Adám discovers.
