Outer product is a [[monadic operator]], which will produce a [[dyadic function]] when applied with a [[dyadic function]]. In APL, the outer product is a generalisation of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_multiplication matrix product], which allows not only multiplication, but any [[dyadic function]] given. In short, outer product allows you to apply a given function for each element from the left array with each element to the right array.
