  Found it on the internet and was intrigued. Wrote them an email, got an educational version, read the manual very thoroughly, made up exercises and solved them, read and tried to understand a lot of code. I especially recommend "K finger exercises" http://www.kx.com/technical/contribs/eugene/kidioms.html http://www.kx.com/technical/contribs/eugene/kidioms.html . Then I taught my brother a little - he was into trading at the time, wrote his graduate thesis on time-series analysis and now works at a hedge fund. Also, they recently made q/kdb+ available for download http://www.kx.com/developers/software.php http://www.kx.com/developers/software.php , which turned some of my friends on to it :-)
