deep amend

Deep amend
.[x;y[;f];z]

Deep Amend, also known as dmend or drill is a deep version of Amend which allows modification of elements which are nested deep inside an array.

Deep Amend takes 3 or 4 arguments, where:

  • x is an array to amend
  • y is the index route to amend
  • z is the function to apply to those indices
  • u (optional), is the second argument to z

It is very similar to Amend in its functionality. The main difference is that y when given an array indexes into subarrays when used.

ngn/k[edit]

ngn/k's amend has z as the optional argument, instead of having f as an optional argument.
