- 22:23, 23 February 2024 Number (hist | edit) [4,921 bytes] Marshall (talk | contribs) (Created page with "In APL, a number is a scalar array representing a mathematical wikipedia:number. Numbers and characters were the only possible element types in APL\360 and remain the basic data types in modern APLs. In addition to quantities for computation, they are used to represent Booleans (0 and 1) and indices. Numeric operations may be subject to floating-point rounding and comparison tolerance. Traditionally, APL provides only one user-visib...")

Founded in 1969, the company initially developed APL*PLUS together with I.P. Sharp Associates (IPSA), and offered time sharing service to the United States while IPSA sold to Canada. The products were later split, with IPSA renaming its version to SHARP APL. STSC's APL business was sold to form APL2000 in 1995, and is now...")

Many other commercial vendors have implemented APL at some point. == By dialect == Here families of dialects are grouped together: IBM APL includes APL0, APL.SV, and others; APL*PLUS includes APL+Win and APL64; and SHARP APL includes SAX.

In this system, a number can be added to or subtracted from a character to give another character, and two characters can be subtracted to give a number. These are the same operations allowed in an wikipedia:affine space, and on types such as wikipedia:pointer (computer science)s. Character arithmetic was developed...")

Because each index can appear multiple times in the array of indices, or not at all, each result element is a list of all the values placed there.

In APL it's usually written with the Power operator as <syntaxhighlight lang=apl inline>(f⍣¯1) x</syntaxhighlight>.
