Re: [Bug-apl] Help.def format

[Juergen Sauermann]

Hi,

-3 should read "dyadic operator taking one argument". SVN 1032.

Hi,

Thanks!

But still can's see the difference between -3 and -4. Probably it is not
necessary?

 Hi,

 Looking at this file I started to realize what I miss something.
 What do the negative values of the first argument mean?
 >From a software point of view it is hard to get if the negative arity
 means, there are some values with -3 or even -4 there.

 For example we have
 help_def(-1, "\\", "Scan", "Reduce of all prefixes of B al
 and
 help_def(-1, "⍀", "Scan", "Reduce of all prefixes

 Both of these operators.

 Maybe we need to have a defined meaning for these values (if there is no
 right now) and change the help.def accordingly?
