APL.jl works on a minor subset of APL that allows the compiler to parse and translate APL code into Julia code. Due to this, APl.jl always returns Julia data. Dfns defined using APl.jl can hence be used directly in Julia code like ordinary functions. | APL.jl works on a minor subset of APL that allows the compiler to parse and translate APL code into Julia code.

The <code>apl""</code> string macro parses and | The <code>apl""</code> string macro parses and evaluates an APL expression. The parser works on the reverse of the APL code, using the help of concatenation rules to recognize the syntax of the expression.<ref>https://github.com/shashi/APL.jl#implementation-notes</ref> | ||
