Data _null_,
No, I thought I might as well have just waited for you. I liked your
structure better with no DO-block, so that bothered me.
I have the DEFINEDATA function because I copied code without much thought
since I don't work hard enough. (I doubt if DEFINEDATA added that much time
to the run.) That also explains my H's.
Perhaps including the HASHEXP: parameter would have been helpful for more
realistic situations, but Paul's data didn't seem to require it.

You might think I copied your program. I did not. Interesting we both chose
H1 and H2 as names for the hashes.
We did, I believe, each of us include an unnecessary bit.
I include, hash(ordered:'a') which has no effect. You include, defineData()
which while doing no harm has no benefit that I can see.
