coltar, `:*`, %cltr
============================
Tuple
`:*`, `coltar`, `[%cltr p=tusk]` is a synthetic rune that produces a
tuple.
Produces
--------
Twig: `[%cltr p=tusk]`
Sample
------
`p` is a [`++tusk`](), a list of twigs.
Tall form
---------
:~ i.p
i.t.p
i.t.t.p
==
Wide form
---------
:*(i.p i.t.p i.t.t.p)
Irregular form
--------------
[i.p i.t.p i.t.t.p]
Examples
--------
/~zod/try=> :*(5 3 4 1 4 9 0 ~ 'a')
[5 3 4 1 4 9 0 ~ 'a']
/~zod/try=> [5 3 4 1 4 9 0 ~ 'a']
[5 3 4 1 4 9 0 ~ 'a']
/~zod/try=> :* 5
3
4
1
4
9
0
~
'a'
==
[5 3 4 1 4 9 0 ~ 'a']
This is the most straightforward case of `:*`, producing a tuple of n
values in wide, irregular and tall form.
