Weighted Taylor u t:  0 0 0  

The result of u t: k is (!k)*u t. k . In other words, the coefficients produced by t: are the Taylor coefficients weighted by the factorial. As a consequence, the coefficients produced by it when applied to functions of the exponential family show simple patterns. For this reason it is sometimes called the exponential generating function.
 

For example:
   k=: i. 12
   ^ t: k
1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1

   %@^t: k                    NB. Decaying exponential
1 _1 1 _1 1 _1 1 _1 1 _1 1 _1

   sin =: 1&o.
   cos =: 2&o.
   sinh=: 5&o.
   cosh=: 6&o.
   exp=: ^
   dec=: %@^

   (exp t:,dec t:,sinh t:,cosh t:,sin t:,:cos t:) k
