Adding to RodgerTheGreat's comment: for me, k's power is its rich set of adverbs that are convenient to write. Notice that aside from reverse (monadic |), all verb symbols in the above code are in most other languages (max as |, m

Everything I've found that's public is documented here: https://gist.github.com/chrispsn/da00835bb122c42f429a084df83... The kparc.com links are down though.

I think we need some kind of grouping function, but it doesn't have to be the 'generate group indices' function. I'm sure we'll have alternatives available such as `update ... by`.

In the Wordle dict example, it would have helped if a type system could tell me I was wrong when I assumed that an indexing miss would generate an empty list.

Yep - added a link to some simple examples in the article (below). Throughout the article there are also a few links to executable versions of the code examples. https://ngn.codeberg.page/k/#eJxdjssKwjAQRffzFddVFyLFoiiF

I don't think user-level definitions of custom symbols are that useful, but for what it's worth, you can do it in ngn/k... (Π):!/: / make table Π[`a `b ( 1 2 3 4)]

In case you've jumped straight to the comments, here are some intro links. Many of these also appear in ngn/k's readme. First, direct links to ngn/k in the browser: - REPL: https://ngn.bitbucket.io/k&#x2F

A mini-map is a cool idea! In Excel I often temporarily zoom out to get a big picture view of the program structure.

You didn't mention it, so for avoidance of doubt: have you heard of k? Commercial k variants come with a columnar data store (see Kx's q/kdb+, Shakti's k9).
