Given a list (of varying size), I want to change one of the elements.

Linterp (from the Lobjects) allows me to grab an element, but how do I replace it?

I’m currently using funbuff, table, multislider, and coll, all of which work, but there must be a more efficient way….

Given a list [3 5 4 8], I want to, for example, increment the 3rd element by one to get [3 5 5 8].

Isn’t there a way to do this without using a table?

Thanks!

completely different task than you explained in the first mail…

use a simple unpack, pack combo, a messagebox, or more universal
zl nth, (part of the zl help file copied in)
