I-Beam is a monadic operator that provides a range of system related services.

Warning

Although documentation is provided for I-Beam functions, any service provided using I-Beam should be considered as "experimental" and subject to change – without notice - from one release to the next. Any use of I-Beams in applications should therefore be carefully isolated in cover-functions that can be adjusted if necessary.

A is an integer that specifies the type of operation to be performed. Y is an array that supplies further information about what is to be done.

X may or may not be required depending on A.

R is the result of the derived function.
