{{ | {{Built-in|Ravel|,}} is a [[primitive function]] introduced in [[APL\360]] which returns the ''ravel'' of an array. In the APL [[array model]], an array's ravel is the [[vector]] containing all its [[elements]] in [[ravel order]]. It is equivalent to [[Reshape|reshaping]] an array using its [[bound]] for the new [[shape]]. Reshaping the ravel using the original array's shape restores that array. | ||
In some APLs an [[Function axis|axis]] may be specified for Ravel in order to combine only some [[Axis|axes]] of an array, or insert a length-1 axis. | In some APLs an [[Function axis|axis]] may be specified for Ravel in order to combine only some [[Axis|axes]] of an array, or insert a length-1 axis. | ||

You can use ravel to squash a [[matrix]] down to one dimension. The elements are listed in reading order—left to right, top to bottom. | You can use ravel to squash a [[matrix]] down to one dimension. The elements are listed in reading order—left to right, top to bottom. | ||
