Function definition: Difference between revisions

Line 405:
 
Here we use an [http://www.jsoftware.com/help/dictionary/intro18.htm explicit] definition (where the arguments are named) rather than a [http://www.jsoftware.com/help/dictionary/intro19.htm tacit] version (where the arguments are implied). In explicit J verbs, x is the left argument and y is the right argument.
 
(Note, by the way, that explicit definitions are a subset of tacit definitions -- when the arguments are explicitly named they are still implied in the larger context containing the definition.)
