The following dyads are now supported by special code for
Boolean, integer, floating point, or literal vectors or scalars:

	comp i. 0:		i.&0@:comp
	comp i. 1:		i.&1@:comp
	comp i: 0:		i:&0@:comp
	comp i: 1:		i:&1@:comp
	[: +/ comp		+/@:comp

where comp is one of = ~: < <: >: > E.
(< <: >: > not available for literal).
Time and space savings depend on the arguments used.
For example:

   ts=: 6!:2 , 7!:2@]    NB. time and space
   x=: ?1e6$1e9
   y=: 1.5e9
   ts '+/x<y'        
0.0339839 1.04973e6
   ts 'x +/@:< y'        NB. scan entire x
0.0205264 1280
   ts '(x<y) i. 1'
0.0295772 1.04941e6
   ts 'x (< i. 1:) y'    NB. immediate hit

   ts '(x>:y) i. 1'
0.0393262 1.04954e6
   ts 'x (>: i. 1:) y'   NB. scan entire x
0.0218871 1216
   x1=: y 5e5}x
   ts '(x1>:y)i.1'
0.036011 1.04941e6
   ts 'x1 (>: i. 1:) y'  NB. scan half of x1
