In nested APLs, a simple non-scalar array has depth 1, an array containing only depth 1 arrays has depth 2, and a simple scalar (e.g a number or character) has depth 0.
In nested APLs, a simple non-scalar array has depth 1, an array containing only depth 1 arrays has depth 2, and a simple scalar (e.g a number or character) has depth 0.


Most APLs provide a Depth function <source lang=apl inline>≡</source> to find an array's depth. For example:
Most APLs provide a Depth function <syntaxhighlight lang=apl inline>≡</source> to find an array's depth. For example:
<source lang=apl>
<syntaxhighlight lang=apl>
