is date within A;B
same as

nope
if? you wrap first expression with brackets it would produce the same result
even though, evaluation of second is slower then ‘within’ - checked on few days in hdb
maybe map-reduce doesn’t work with second, not sure…
‘within’ includes the start and end value.
doing a quick search on code.kx.com for ‘within’ gives:
