I really love this book, it is hard af but I still can understand 1-2 pages of each paragraph. I have received some great insights, like the function is the endless lists of inputs and outputs, and some really great humour, such as all is not lost in mathematical notation. I really wish I can understand this book completely before I die.




>1-2 pages of each paragraph.

made me laugh, envisioning the book as written by Victor Hugo.


"1-2 pages"

Simplifying: -1 pages.


Excuse me! I am a J programmer, we have right-to-left execution order.

J programmer, huh? You are right of left, which is inexcusable, so, by order, you will soon be summarily executed.
