Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+2374 "⍴" Apl Functional Symbol Rho is a graphic symbol used in the APL programming language to represent the shape or reshape function, which returns the dimensions of an array or restructures data into a new shape. Its design resembles the Greek letter rho, reflecting its mathematical origins, and it is classified as a symbol for APL-specific notation within the Unicode standard rather than as a standard letter or digit. This character allows programmers to write concise, array-oriented operations, distinguishing APL from more verbose languages by embedding core functionality into a single typed glyph.
