There's also Nial: https://github.com/danlm/qnial7 which is (pardon the oversimplification) APL but with words instead of symbols.

I guess you're referring to this: https://github.com/danlm/QNial7

…fusion of the two that's fun and enlightening to play with. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nial https://github.com/danlm/QNial7

…really understand it in a way that pretty much nothing else gives me with all the extra typing. [1] https://github.com/danlm/qnial7 [2] https://crypto.stanford.edu/~blynn/c/apl.html

This looks rather nice and in some ways resembles Nial ( https://github.com/danlm/QNial7 ) in that its a array language that is more accessible to programmers not familiar with APL/K/Q etc However the gist is over 8 years old and there…

People who are interested in a more readable APL should have a look at Nial: https://github.com/danlm/QNial7 It is a fairly standard APL which inherently uses english-like notation instead of symbols.

…obfuscated syntax. isprime is op n {not ((n = 1) or (0 in (n mod (rest count (floor (sqrt n))))))} https://github.com/danlm/QNial7 https://tangentstorm.github.io/nial/intro.ndf.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nial

If you would prefer to use keywords instead of symbols, Nial is a good option: https://github.com/danlm/QNial7

Perhaps Nial would be of interest: https://github.com/danlm/QNial7

…not so bad. If you want to see APL expressed as C primitives, something like Nial is pretty good: https://github.com/danlm/QNial7

Or like Q'Nial: https://github.com/danlm/QNial7

…like what you are asking for here. It is an array language, but uses more verbose function names: https://github.com/danlm/QNial7
comment by eggy · 2018-04-29 · in A History of APL in 50 Functions -
Q'Nial ( https://github.com/danlm/QNial7 ), although it seems pretty much an abandoned language. Searching for it on github yields like, 3 repos. http://www.nial.com/ is the official website, which also seems abandoned.

Another cousin: Nial (C, GPL interpreter): https://github.com/danlm/QNial7 The author of Nial, Mike Jenkins, has recently released v7 of Nial. Nial is akin to Q in that many of the operators are keywords rather than symbols. Its…
