Examples

~zod/try=> (ream '%12')
[%dtzz p=%ud q=12]
~zod/try=> (ream '%&')
[%dtzz p=%f q=0]
~zod/try=> (ream '%sam')
[%dtzz p=%tas q=7.168.371]

Here we use ++ream to unpack how values are parsed. Prefixing a value with a % implicitly turns it into a %cube with the following value: an odored noun.
