Operators Summarised

Table 14 and Table 15 below summarise the Monadic and Dyadic primitive operators whose detailed descriptions follow in alphabetical order in this section.

Some operators may include an axis specification (indicated []in the tables). Note that in these case ⎕IO is an implicit argument of the derived function.
