'''BQN''' is an APL-family language designed primarily by [[Marshall Lochbaum]]. Although it maintains the concept of array-driven computing and much of APL's array functionality, BQN discards all [[backwards compatibility|compatibility]] with other array languages and changes many fundamental concepts. It uses the [[based array model]] with dedicated [[array notation]], distinguishes between data types and expression roles to give the language a [[wikipedia:context-free grammar|context-free grammar]] with [[wikipedia:first-class function|first-class function]]s, | '''BQN''' is an APL-family language designed primarily by [[Marshall Lochbaum]]. Although it maintains the concept of array-driven computing and much of APL's array functionality, BQN discards all [[backwards compatibility|compatibility]] with other array languages and changes many fundamental concepts. It uses the [[based array model]] with dedicated [[array notation]], distinguishes between data types and expression roles to give the language a [[wikipedia:context-free grammar|context-free grammar]] with [[wikipedia:first-class function|first-class function]]s, uses a new set of [[glyph]]s with different primitive pairings, and implements [[character arithmetic]]. The language uses the [[leading axis model]] and [[tacit programming]] as core paradigms. Its implementation is largely self-hosted, with an array-based compiler like [[Co-dfns]]. | ||
