It's certainly esoteric, but I wouldn't say it's unreadable. Given that APL is like a programming alphabet of sorts, it'd be interesting to see how quickly and tersely one could put together infrastructure with it. Too bad it has virtually no ecosystem.

It may not be a meaningful comparison, but the commenting on the side is more reminiscent of assembly than a high-level language (i.e. the code itself is not sufficient to tell you what it's attempting to do). Is this how well-commented most APL turns out, or is this due to being a teaching piece of sorts?
