BQN: finally, an APL for your flying saucer

-

This repository does not yet have a working implementation. However, there are some incomplete implementations you can use, with one you can try online here. See running.md for more.

Try it here! The online version is mainly good for small programs currently; see running.md for more options.

BQN is a new programming language in the APL lineage, which aims to remove inconsistent and burdensome aspects of the APL tradition and put the great ideas on a firmer footing. 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:
