[Jprogramming] Monadic verb chains: The J-way

[Jan-Pieter Jacobs]

If a verb is needed, one could easily make an explicit verb out of it as
well:

v1=: 3 :'|:>:*:y'

or

v2=: {{|:>:*:y}} NB. in J902 and onwards

I can imagine that this could be a lot shorter than a tacit version if the
chain gets long.

Best regards,
Jan-Pieter
