How do i passed 2 variables to a lambda function, where x is a number and y is a symbol. I have written this, but it wouldn't process
{[x;y]
// some calculation with x and y
}
each ((til 5) ,\:/: `a`b`c`d`f)
It seems to be complaining that i am missing another arg.
Here's an example that I think does what you're looking for:
q){string[x],string y}./: raze (til 5) ,\:/: `a`b`c`d`f
The issue with your example is that you need to raze the output of ((til 5) ,\:/: `a`b`c`d`f) to get your list of 2 inputs.
Passing a list of variables into a function is accomplished using "." (dot apply) http://code.kx.com/q/ref/unclassified/#apply .e.g
q){x+y} . 10 2
12
In my example, I've then used an "each right" to then apply to each pair. http://code.kx.com/q/ref/adverbs/#each-right
Alternatively, you could use the each instead if you wrapped the function in another lamda
q){{string[x],string y} . x} each raze (til 5) ,\:/: `a`b`c`d`f
{string[x],'string y} . flip 100000#raze (til 5) ,\:/: `a`b`c`d`f (Added the "100000#" for more test data )Instead of generating a list of arguments using cross or ",/:\:" and passing each of these into your function, modify your function with each left each right ("/:\:") to give you all combination. his should take the format;
x f/:\: y
Where x and y are both lists. Reusing the example {string[x],string y};
til[5] {string[x], string y}/:\:`a`b`c`d
This will give you a matrix of all combinations of x and y. If you want to flatten that list add a 'raze'
