| Anglish Plurals | Anglish Possessives |
Anglish allows compound table and row names as well as compound column names. Individual cells, rows and columns can be accessed using compound names and the Anglish possessive constructions. The table below has compound row and column names. Each cell is labeled with the row-column compound name combination that selects it.
-------------------------------------
| |unknown |nonzero |value |
| | |term | |
-------------------------------------
|smaller |smaller |smaller |smaller |
|number |number |number |number |
| |unknown |nonzero |value |
| | |term | |
-------------------------------------
|larger |larger |larger |larger |
|number |number |number |number |
| |unknown |nonzero |value |
| | |term | |
-------------------------------------
Complete columns can be selected and processed
at once using Anglish Plurals
Sometimes it is instructive to write equations as part of
the row labels as was discussed in Class III
problems. Anglish requires all special symbols, such as "+" and "=",
which are used to seperate columns or rows, to be replicated as shown
below.
------------------------------------------
| |unknownXfactor=timeX = |
| | X = Xrate=effort|
------------------------------------------
| Pete | | 2 | | | 1 |
|++++++++---------------------------------
| Joe | | 1 | | | 1 |
|========---------------------------------
|combined| | | 3 | | 1 |
------------------------------------------
The "time" column label can only be given once. Otherwise, the
multi-label feature of Anglish would read the column name as "time time".
For this reason in Anglish programs, the formula operators are often
eliminated. The formula relationships are given in the statements
after the table.
------------------------------------------
| |unknown|factor|time|rate|effort|
------------------------------------------
Pete's unknown = Pete's effort / Pete's factor;
Joe's unknown = Joe's effort / Joe's factor;
