* In [[NARS2000]], two immediately adjacent dots, <source lang=apl inline>..</source>, form a bi-glyph, and represents the [[Sequence]] function (represented by the ellipsis, <source lang=apl inline>…<⍳0</source> in [[dzaima/APL]] and [[Extended Dyalog APL]]).

Due to its use in numeric constants, letting <source lang=apl inline>.</source> be a dyadic operator that takes numeric operands or a function that takes numeric arguments, is potentially problematic or at least confusing:
