Nice! anyone who's worked on wall street has seen how much people pay for K

K is a great opportunity for anyone looking to work in finance and technology. The programmers are in exceptionally high demand. This project will make it easier to become proficient in K. Anyone looking to branch into this area now has an interpreter and the corresponding source, which wasn't available before.

Looks clean and succinct. Is there a forum/google-group that one can join to learn more about Kona?

The company that originally made the "k" language (Kx Systems) has a Google group:

http://groups.google.com/group/personal-kdbplus

That one is mostly for "q", a proprietary follow-up language.

There's also the "k idioms", which are always educational:

Very true. That's because only good programmers can code it.

k programmers are not in high demand, but Q developers are. k is not Q, although both languages share a common paradigm.
