In preparation for my talk βWhy APL is a language worth knowingβ, I published an article on my blog that is supposed to be a written version of my talk.
In this talk/article,Β I hope to convince you that learning a language that is radically different from all the other languages you know isn't harmful. Learning a language that is radically different from all other languages you know won't scatter your knowledge or spread your brain too thin. In fact, learning a language that is radically different from all other languages you know will cement your programmingΒ knowledge, helping you build bridges between topics you didn't even know were connected.Β
