true. only k is faster, easier to learn, and does the trick :) that said, i hold the view that mastering programming in an ultra-high level language such as APL or k does not absolve a computer programmer from learning lingua franca of our trade, which is due to k&r, will stay around for a very long time, and is called C. people who don’t know c are ok, only they are not involved in computer programming. their field is known as software development. feel the difference. i once attempted to convey my own understanding of this divide in a chapter titled “no stinking loops”, which is a nod to Apter’s mandatory nsl.com: https://github.com/kparc/kcc#no-stinking-loops
