Tacit functions apply to implicit arguments. This is in contrast to the explicit use of arguments in [[dfns]] (<source inline lang=apl>⍺ ⍵</source>) and [[tradfns]] (which have named arguments). Some APL dialects allow to combine functions into '''trains''' following a small set of rules. This allows creating complex derived functions without specifying any arguments explicitly.

Known dialects which implement trains are [[Dyalog APL]], [[dzaima/APL]], [[ngn/apl]] and [[NARS2000]].
