TILs such as forth. Smalltalk. What family does APL belong to?

  Certainly its own family, along with its successors J and K.

    You could argue those languages are not very clean, at least syntactic-wise.

      Don't confuse having lots of operators with being unclean. They're syntactically more internally consistent than Common Lisp, for example.
