APL-based languages

Name: Anonymous 2009-05-18 23:02

First, can you guess what this does?
+/?,/,/'(!10000;!1000){r*"123456789"~{x@<x}@,/$x,y,r:x*y}/:\:'(1+!9;11+!89)

It's a solution from the forum for Euler Project problem 32, "Find the sum of all products whose multiplicand/multiplier/product identity can be written as a 1 through 9 pandigital.", and it's written in K.
That's not too shabby, huh?
I've been thinking about learning a APL-based language. J looks like a good choice. Anyone know anything about this?

To be fluent at APL and similar languages, you need an IQ of at least 140.

I'd go for something with more accent on functional programming and a free interpreter/compiler.
Also, knowing APL can land you a nice job in finance.

Code should look good.
And math is boring.

Don't change these.
