uiua VS edina

This is what I love in Uiua[1]. That operators can be written as english words instead of unicode symbols. Makes it quite similar looking to functuinal point free code.

you may also enjoy uiua (https://www.uiua.org/) which uses these alien glyphs but is even more alien because it's a concatenative language (stack oriented), like forth or postscript, but to make it even more alien it's written right to left. For example 1+2 is written "+ 1 2" (in forth it would be "1 2 +")

The language and the site are brilliant and I think worth 30m of your time skimming through and trying out the examples in the online editor / tutorial.

If you're fine with tacit array-oriented (ie APL-like): Uiua.

As a lover of array languages, I remember being excited to read a futurist article on vector processors and programming languages. It was written right before Wes McKinney worked on Pandas (the J programming language influenced him), and I thought J/APL or another array language was going to explode. J has Jd, in which J is fully integrated. This did not come to pass (yet). No matter, I still enjoy array languages anyway. There's a new array language, uiua[1], that is a mix of array and stack concepts with a good standard library including audio and graphics.

Yeah

> The main language that inspired Uiua is BQN. While I had heard about APL before, BQN was my first real exposure to the power of the array paradigm. I think the language is an astounding feat of engineering. Marshall is both a genius and a great communicator.

Also, a week ago there were only two contributors to the project: 1000+ by kaikalii, and this single commit by Marshall:

Edina is available at cerus/edina. I'm planning on moving Edina to a dedicated GitHub organization soon.
