{{Built-in|Not|~}} is a [[Primitive function|primitive]] [[monadic]] [[scalar function]] that returns the [[wikipedia:Negation|logical negation]] of a [[Boolean]] argument—that is, 0 if the argument is 1 and 1 if it is 0. In some languages, such as [[J]], it is extended so that Not <source lang=apl inline>x</source> is equivalent to <source lang=apl inline>1-x</source> while in others, such as [[K]], it is extended so that Not <source lang=apl inline>x</source> is equivalent to <source lang=apl inline>0=x</source>.

[[A Programming Language]] negates arrays using an overbar symbol like <math>\overline{p}</math>, matching a convention sometimes used in mathematics. In [[APL\360]] the current symbol <source lang=apl inline>~</source> was chosen, also due to its use in mathematics. Mathematical usage has arguably diverged from APL in this respect, as the negation of a variable <math>p</math> is now more often written <math>\neg p</math>, using the symbol <math>¬</math>, when a prefix operator is desired.

The arithmetic extension <source lang=apl inline>~x</source> {{←→}} <source lang=apl inline>1-x</source> was introduced to the array langauge family by [[J]]. For arguments in the interval <math>[0,1]</math> this extension may be seen as a probabilistic interpretation of negation.
