Afternoon! My name's Scott, but OL I mostly go by ngabwI'. I ran into the varaq page about a year ago, but was busy with C++, so I did not delve into it too...

... Of course it is. :) Brian took the time to add those four lines to the spec, it's up to us to implement it. Of course, if you're not doing type checking...
BTW, I really enjoy Scott's posts, but I don't think he will be with us for long--his tlhIngan name means "one who disappears" or "The Invisible Man" or "The...

Has anyone actually done a var'aq program using the wIv operator other than something trivial? This is pseudocode: {true} wIv { "True" cha' } HIja'chugh {...
K, now perl's up and running, and I'm trying out the stuff in gettingstarted. The math functions work just fine, but when I try to do a countdown {toghHa'} I...

I found the solution to most of my own questions not long after I e-mailed this message. As I've been told again and again, RTFM. Sorry about that, Scott ...
... Probably not. :) I always expected that wIv was used with a tam (exch) at the end of the HIja'chughwI'. Doesn't get around the problem if that needed to...
