In [[leading axis theory]], the [[frame]] for k-cells of an array is a prefix of that array's [[shape]], while the [[cell shape]] is a [[suffix]]. | In [[leading axis theory]], the [[frame]] for k-cells of an array is a prefix of that array's [[shape]], while the [[cell shape]] is a [[suffix]]. | ||
[[Iverson notation]] included the notion of a prefix vector <math>\alpha^j(n)</math> consisting of <math>j</math> ones followed by <math>n-j</math> zeros; such a vector could be used to produce a length-<math>j</math> prefix of a length-<math>n</math> vector using [[Compress]].

In [[Dyalog APL]]'s [[Total array ordering]], a prefix of another array always orders earlier than that array; this is a consequence of the principally "nothing is less than something" used as the foundation for Dyalog's TAO. | In [[Dyalog APL]]'s [[Total array ordering]], a prefix of another array always orders earlier than that array; this is a consequence of the principally "nothing is less than something" used as the foundation for Dyalog's TAO. | ||
