{{ | {{Built-in|Shape|⍴}} is a [[monadic function]] which returns the ''shape'' of its argument array, namely a [[vector]] of lengths of the array along each [[axis]]. The [[dyadic function]] using the same symbol is [[Reshape]] which produces an array of the shape specified by its left argument. | ||
An array's shape may be any vector of nonnegative integers with length less than or equal to the [[maximum rank]]. The length of an array's shape is the array's [[rank]], and the product of the shape is its [[bound]]. If the shape is [[Empty array|empty]] then the array is a [[scalar]]. | An array's shape may be any vector of nonnegative integers with length less than or equal to the [[maximum rank]].
