📚 node [[apl]]

APL is an array-oriented programming language, or rather a family of such languages. APL was originally a [[math notation]], but because it was a good math notation, it naturally transformed into a programming language. Its most known feature is a vast usage of made-up characters and extremely compact programs.

A notable descendant of APL is [[BQN]].
