@PeterT: Fond memories of APL. Sadly, it was close to a write-only languages. As one person I knew (professional APL programmer) was fond of saying, "Yes, it is close to correct that APL can do almost anything in three lines. The problem is looking at those 3 lines the next day and understanding what they did."
