X is a scalar or vector of indices of Y.
R is an item selected from the structure of Y according to X.
Elements of X select from successively deeper levels in the structure of Y. The items of X are simple integer scalars or vectors which identify a set of indices, one per axis at the particular level of nesting of Y in row-major order. Simple scalar items in Y may be picked by empty vector items in X to any arbitrary depth.
⎕IO is an implicit argument of Pick.
