Rowan is a very APL-like language built on the same engine as R, from which it inherits its array capabilities, connection to .NET, error-handling and namespace architecture. The following examples shows its similarity to APL when using dfns:

   avg←{(+/⍵)÷⍴⍵}
   a←3 5 6
   avg a
Result: 4.66666666666667
