IMNSHO, F-Script or a language very much like it is the next step in the
evolutionary path towards maximal expressive power - Arrays and Objects
are made for each other. The F-Script-related papers are among the most
interesting (and eye-opening) ones I've ever read, so don't judge before
having done the same.
APL -- or rather K (http://www.kx.com), probably the most advanced
APLesque langauge in existence -- is, after some time (~ 1 week) of
reading and writing, of course, _extremely_ readable. The extremely
dense notation makes it actually easier to get a grasp on the potential
structure of the computation than with more verbose langauges (strictly
my experience).
