The K language I thought it's a somewhat interesting, specially the part on "bulk operators", which I think is the same that is intended to do with Perl 6 arrays (@a + @b). And an abstraction on IPC for different platforms is also interesting, however I don't know if that's really needed if you've got Threads... The rest of it is just that crap trying to convince you to buy it, by using empty words like `truly empowering', `Realtime OLAP and OLTP are possible', `fully leverages the analytic capabilities', `described as awesome by users' (this one is really the best I ever read...). http://www.kx.com/developers_faq_k.htm My personal favorites in the empty word contest: http://www.kx.com/developers_faq_k.htm#Why do K applications run so fast http://www.kx.com/developers_faq_k.htm#If K is so concise and productive, how readable is it http://www.kx.com/developers_faq_k.htm#How about K and code reusability such as is talked about in OO - Branden
