coltar, :*, %cltr

Tuple

:*, coltar, [%cltr p=tusk] is a synthetic hoon 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.
