[Bug-apl] Squish quad function DOMAIN ERROR

[Frederick H. Pitts]

Hello Juergen,

        Is it intentional that the index function ⌷ (squish quad) no longer
accepts near-integer floating point numbers in the left argument?  In
the svn 626 version of GNU APL, using near-integer floating points in
the left argument
results in a DOMAIN ERROR.  For example

      ( 10 11 12 )[ 2 ]
11
      ( 10 11 12 )[ 3.0 ]
12
      2 ⌷ 10 11 12
11
      2.0 ⌷ 10 11 12
DOMAIN ERROR
      2⌷10 11 12
      ^^

        In the past, the GNU APL ⌷ accepted near integers just like the bracket
index [ ] function does now.  Do I need to revert to using the bracket
index function if I need near-integer floating point indices?

Regards,

Fred
