Hello, question moved here from programming to chat list,
I am not trying to start a flame war, so please understand that is not my intentions. I am looking at either learning APL or J. I am an inexperienced programmer. My reasoning is that I would like to learn an array language purely as an academic exercise (you can say, 'for fun'). I know this is a J forum, so i assume its going to be biased, but is there any reason I should learn J instead of APL, or vice versa? Aside from J using ASCII characters instead of 'iverson notation' (excuse me if i got that wrong or if J also falls in that category), what am i losing out on not focusing on J and instead on APL? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
