:Okay, I've created [[APL operators]]. Comments, corrections, additions, etc. welcome. –[[User:Shoaler|Shoaler]] ([[User talk:Shoaler|talk]]) 20:23, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
I have looked at [[APL operators]]. My major complaint is that the term 'operator' is used instead of 'function'. All of the items in the table refer what tradional APlers called functions. APL\360 had a samll number of operators: reduction, inner (matrix) product, and outer (Cartesian) product. Later versions such as APL II, SHARP APL, APL PLUS etc provided a much richer collection of operators.
One dyadic function is missing:
Circle AoB A selected a trignometic or hyperbolic function of B
The descriptions of iota and query ignore index origin but this is acceptable in this context.
It appears that you are using a CSS downloaded font for the APL characters. This doesn't work in IE or Opera (I have been struggling with this on my own site for months.) A note recommending the use of a CSS2 compliant browser such as FIrefox or Safari would be desirable.
I believe that Adrian Smith (adrian@causeway.co.uk) has a nicer looking APL font than that which you are using. I (rdmoore@sympatico.ca) can provide you with a private copy as a demo but obviously permission should be obtained from Adrian before it is used on Wiki. Ideally Adrian would publish via Wiki Common so that many could use it.[[User:Rdmoore6|Rdmoore6]] 19:49, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
