A vector subarray of a [[vector]] is a subvector. In languages outside of the APL family which have only 1-dimensional arrays, "subarray" may have this meaning: for example, the [[wikipedia:maximum subarray problem|maximum subarray problem]] is usually taken to apply to 1-dimensional arrays only. The term "slice" may also be used to refer to a subvector outside of APL. | A vector subarray of a [[vector]] is a subvector.

The [[Find]] (< | The [[Find]] (<syntaxhighlight lang=apl inline>⍷</syntaxhighlight>) function searches for occurrences of the left argument as a subarray of the right argument. For Find, a subarray may have leading axes dropped but not others. We might also say that Find searches for the left argument after extending its [[shape]] with leading 1s, or that it searches for the left argument as a subarray of any equal-[[rank]] [[cell]] of the right argument. | ||
