Tally R←≢Y
Y
may be any array. R
is a simple numeric scalar.
Tally returns the number of major cells of Y
. See Cells and Sub-arrays.
This can also be expressed as the length of the leading axis or 1 if Y
is a scalar. Tally is equivalent to the function {⍬⍴(⍴⍵),1}
.
Examples
≢2 3 4⍴⍳10
2
≢2
1
≢⍬
0
Note that ≢V
is useful for returning the length of vector V
as a scalar. (In contrast, ⍴V
is a one-element vector.)
