How to execute a variable

I don't know what this is called, but I think it's possible in APL. Let's say I have matrixes with for example, calendar data, called CAL2020, CAL2021, CAL2022, and I have a function that I call with a year value for Y, for example PLOTCALENDAR 2021. So when the function is called, Y will have a ...

Unable to open file

Hello, I transferred a WINAPL workspace to Dyalog and so far everything has been running pretty well, except for one thing. I'm trying to open a file and it says the system can't find it even though the file is there. For example, if I execute 'C:\file.doc' ⎕NTIE ¯1 I get the error: FILE NAME ERROR: ...

Issue with ⍎ that worked fine in APLWIN and APLX

Hello, I'm hoping someone has an idea about this. I have a simple piece of code that ran fine in WINAPL and APLX, but doesn't in Dyalog. The code extracts date information, (yyyymmdd, e.g., 20170910), from a character matrix and converts it to numeric, but I get a rank error in Dyalog. The code is ...

File IO on a Mac

Hello, I transferred my APL2WiN workspaces to Dyalog on the Mac. The functions should mostly run unchanged except for the file IO, since the Mac does not use the same path syntax as the PC. However, I am having trouble figuring out the correct path to read a file from the Mac Desktop to put into an ...
