Fun fact: All three of Go's creators have written APL interpreters, and Go's "iota" keyword is modeled after the corresponding APL operator.
A bit tangential, but what do people here use to input APL characters in macOS?<p>I've been using Dyalog's GUI, but I'd much rather be using free software from the usual terminal. It'd be nice if there were just a global input method like the ones they have for human languages.
<i>Disclaimer<p>The author has never used APL</i><p>I’d like to know more about the underlying motivation! APL is a fascinating language but I’m not sure how you’d implement it efficiently in a language like Go - you would need intrinsics to get at the vector instructions no?
