BQN is aimed at existing and aspiring APL-family programmers, and using it requires a solid understanding of functions and multidimensional arrays. However, because of its focus on providing simple, consistent, and powerful array operations, BQN should also be a good language for learning array programming and building stronger array intuition. BQN maintains many of the ideas that made APL\360 revolutionary in 1966: * Human-friendly **infix notation** with no precedence rules to remember. |
