The numbers or letters in the right-hand argument are shifted by the number of places specified in the left-hand argument. The shift is to the left if the left- hand argument is a positive number and to the right if it's a negative number. 1 ⌽ 1 2 3 4 5 6 (Each number moves one place to
2 3 4 5 6 1 the left. This displaces the first
number to the end of the line)
3 ⌽ 'ABCDEFGH' (Each letter moves left 3 places.
DEFGHABC This displaces the first 3 letters
to the end of the line)
TABLE
1 2 3 4 5
6 7 8 9 0
3 ⌽TABLE (The numbers in each row are moved
4 5 1 2 3 3 places to the left. Equivalent to
9 0 6 7 8 3⌽[2]TABLE)
¯2 ⌽'ABCDEFGH' (The negative number means a shift
GHABCDEF to the right. All letters are
moved 2 places right)
Similar axis considerations apply to rotate. By default Reverse and rotate can be used for selective specification. |
