<p>BQN has a normal enough curly-brace syntax for functions and so on. I don't want to talk about it just yet. Before you get to thinking about how to write <a href="http://www.pbm.com/~lindahl/real.programmers.html">FORTRAN in any language</a> in BQN, let's see if we can acquire some instincts about idiomatic BQN the way that only being stuck in a tightly restricted and horribly confining programming environment can accomplish.</p>
<p>There are benefits to being tightly restricted and horribly confined! In programming. I don't just mean that it forces you to learn new techniques like I said, I mean that using the restricted style we will learn is actually a better way to write portions of a program. This is because a restriction you apply in one part of a program is a promise you can rely on in the rest of the program. So what are we giving up, and what can we rely on in return?</p>
