:::: I think Teledon has a point. J may well be great, but because it is so unlike the C and Lisp and forth based languages that I know more about, it remains impenetrable to me, and probably most other RC readers.
:::: Even so, I think the J guys should '''write good, maintainable, idiomatic J''' and maybe help out us poor, non-J readers maybe by answering questions on the talk pages?
:::: At one time I was in the Texas Instruments camp against the HP Reverse-Polish Notation calculators. Then I learnt all about Reverse-Polish when writing an interpreter and revisited my earlier conclusions on RPN and new that they were rubbish. Later, before I learnt a Lisp-like language I was careful not to reject their claims, and I did learn what made it so good to program in at the time. But now I prefer Python for most things, and am being 'tickled' by Haskell/OCaml/D/Oz. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 11:07, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
