Hello, I am new to q and kdb and have just downloaded the trial version to begin learning. I have gone through several of the tutorials and everything seems to be working correctly. However, whenever I try and assign a symbol to a variable it does not work with a return value of ‘’. Like this:
q)mysymbol:'symbola
'symbola
q)yoursymbols:'symbola’symbolb
‘’
q)mysymbol
'mysymbol
q)yoursymbols
'yoursymbols
and when I try to inspect the namespace I get:
q)key ’
!:’
q)value '.
‘’
Am I assigning these incorrectly or is there something else that I am missing. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I can’t continue with any of the tutorials until I can get this to work as expected.
