APL

don't waste you're time

looks very nice but why does it have to use such weird characters?
how do you even type them in from your keyboard?
Also how does it work? I'm too lazy to read right now, so, what's that unique feature of APL?

No.

In a sense; one line of APL code is equal to many lines of other code (C, C++, Perl, Pascal, etc)

insightful thanks a lot
that was sarcasm in case you didn't notice

Use J. Same language designer. Less "weird" syntax. More updated. Incorporates the designers ideas about level/point-free programming, which is much more important than Unicode-heavy syntax in my opinion.

Still an interesting language, almost completely array-oriented, emphasis on writing functions with it reference to their variables which makes them very flexible and concise but can be hard to read when misused (see articles on "pointless Haskell" for examples on readability in another language).

The language is great - makes it very easy to manipulate arrays; the tooling, not so much.

It's beyond outdated
