Description

x(x1, x2, ..., xn) : xm
If x is a function or procedure, x(x1, x2, …, xn) produces the outcome of calling x with arguments x1, x2, …, xn.

If x is an integer, x(x1, x2, …, xn) produces the outcome of xi, but fails if i is out of the range 1, …, n. In this case, it produces a variable if xi is a variable. i may be nonpositive.
 
Parameters
x
function or integer
x1…
arguments
returns
function result or result of xn[x] or fail
 
Defaults
x
-1
 
Errors
106 x not procedure or integer
117 x is main(), but there is no main procedure (during startup)
