I have actually checked a few thesauruses, and one of the alternatives was "random".....! Another suggested "scattered" which sounds more reasonable, but then I would think .T. was correct in this case. So the more I check, the more confused I am. Can someone please find a synonym for sparse which can make me at least remember when to use which value?
