Is there some application that demonstrates the utility of this language?
E.g. it's tempting to dismiss Haskell as something invented by mathematicians more concerned with the elegance of their abstractions than actually getting things done, but Pandoc is so undeniably good and useful that you're forced to admit Haskell can be a good choice. What's the Pandoc of K?
- rscho 2y agoThat's not the idea. In a sense, the Pandoc of K is K itself. I mean its designed for interactive, fast and terse scripting on financial data for quants. And it's incredibly good for that. So almost all substantial K is proprietary.

- grumpyprole 2y agoThe "killer app" of K is KDB.
- jjtheblunt 2y agoi know Formula 1 has enormous, voluminous, live data feeds streamed from the cars, and god knows where else; kdb/q supposedly enable such.
