Just a hypothesis: Perhaps it's because REVERSE always and only allows one argument, but SORT allows either one or two arguments (see its Help screen). In RPN, REVERSE can assume that it will always and only take one argument from the stack. But SORT can only know whether to take one or two arguments if you tell it to, by typing SORT(1) or SORT(2), respectively. My hypothesis can be tested by seeing if similar behavior occurs with other single-argument functions and other multiple-argument functions. <0|ΙΈ|0> -Joe- |
