APL Wiki:About
For many years APL Wiki was maintained by Kai Jäger as a MoinMoin wiki site. In 2019, APL Wiki was reborn as a MediaWiki site with content more in the style of Wikipedia. It is now maintained by Richard Park. Migration of content from the old APL Wiki is ongoing.
This wiki is a central repository and general information wiki for the APL programming language. There may be pages regarding other languages in the array-oriented and APL family (such as J and K), but these pages should be from the perspective of APL (as they could likely have entire wikis in their own rights).
Contributing
We welcome any and all contributions to APL Wiki, as long as they adhere to the general content standard as observed in existing pages. Currently, many links lead to pages that as of yet do not exist. Creating and populating these missing pages is especially appreciated.
MediaWiki documentation applies. Especially useful for you as a contributor are:
- Editing pages
- Starting a new page
- Links
- Formatting, however, when including APL code in a page, please follow the below guidelines.
Inline APL code
Inline APL code should use the format
The formula <source lang=apl inline>(2=+⌿0=N∘.|N)/N←⍳100</source> computes primes.
which results in
The formula
(2=+⌿0=N∘.|N)/N←⍳100computes primes.
APL code blocks
Inline APL code should use the format
The formula <source lang=apl>(2=+⌿0=N∘.|N)/N←⍳100</source> computes primes.
which results in
The formula
(2=+⌿0=N∘.|N)/N←⍳100computes primes.
Optionally, you can indicate one or more APL dialects which are able to run the code:
The formula
<source lang=apl>{(2=+⌿0=⍵∘.|⍵)/⍵}⍳100</source>
{{Works in|[[Dyalog APL]], [[dzaima/APL]], [[GNU APL]], [[ngn/APL]]}}
computes primes.which results in
The formula
{(2=+⌿0=⍵∘.|⍵)/⍵}⍳100computes primes.
You can include a link to TryAPL or Try It Online with
