Hi,

What would be the correct syntax if I wish to write multiple lines of q codes (e.g. defining a q function that spam multiple lines) in Jupyter? %q seems to parse single line at a time only.

For example the function definition below will not work in Jupyter.

%q .funCust:{[a] %q b:a+1; %q :b; %q };

Thanks

Jeffrey

Use %%q for inline q.

[jljs]

Do you mean %%q .funCust:{[a] b:a+1; :b; };

[antipisa]

Yes, but the last bracket needs to be indented by one space. %%q is the multi in line function you are looking for.

See section 1.4.5: https://media.readthedocs.org/pdf/pyq/latest/pyq.pdf
