[lojban] Defining >=3-D matrices.

[David Gowers <00ai99@gmail.com>]

coi jbosku,

So, I want to define >= 3D matrices in Lojban. This seems like it
should be possible,
but there are no canonical examples of it.

I experimented a bit and came up with a form that makes sense to me:

li jo'i jo'i paboi re te'u
        pi'a
        jo'i ciboi vo te'u
   te'u
   sa'i
   jo'i jo'i muboi xa te'u
        pi'a
        jo'i zeboi bi te'u

 -> the 3d matrix::

 array([[[1, 2],
         [3, 4]],

        [[5, 6],
         [7, 8]]])
(of shape 2x2x2)

Higher dimensions could, IMO, be done by alternating pi'a and sa'i
(pi'a for joining the 4th dimension, sa'i for the 5th, pi'a for the
6th, etc..)

Is this mabla jbosku or xamgu jbosku? (mabla ja xamgu jbosku?)
Is there some other way to do it?

co'o,
david
