[q-lang-users] a little question

[Fabian B. <kan...@we...>]

hello,

from the q manual i tried the following example:

add [X|Xs] = X+add Xs;

then i tried this to test the function:

==> add [1, 2, 3, 4]
1+(2+(3+(4+add [])))

what i want to know is, how can i change this function to get
back a result? i tried the following:

add [X|Xs] = X+add Xs if Xs <> [];

==> add [1, 2, 3, 4]
1+(2+(3+add [4]))

which is still not the result i want. by the way i am using q 7.3
maybe there is someone who can help me.

greetings,

fabian
