Beh. The first person said Julia (wrong). Then the reply assumed that parent meant J, but did not correct parent about Julia, leaving the misconception in place. Which I clarified.


No, I think they tried to correct them about that by saying "J is also up there" (implying "in contrast to Julia"), but I agree that that wasn't very clear, and that your clarification, even if it was under a wrong assumption, did help a lot. I stumbled across this as well.


I think that the point was that Julia isn't APL-like at all while J and K are, very much so in fact.


You replied to the wrong person, then.
