q 编程语言具有一组丰富而强大的内置函数.内置函数可以是以下类型 :
字符串函数 : 将字符串作为输入并返回一个字符串.
聚合函数 : 将列表作为输入并返回原子.
统一函数 : 取一个列表并返回一个相同计数的列表.
数学函数 : 采用数字参数并返回数字参数.
其他功能 : 除上述以外的所有功能.

q)/all - monadic, takes a scaler or list of numeric type and returns the result of & applied across the items. q)all 0b 0b q)all 9 18 27 36 1b q)all 10 20 30 1b
q)/any - monadic, takes scaler or list of numeric type and the return the result of | applied across the items q)any 20 30 40 50 1b q)any 20012.02.12 2013.03.11 '20012.02.12
q)/prd - monadic, takes scaler, list, dictionary or table of numeric type and returns the arithmetic product. q)prd `x`y`z! 10 20 30 6000 q)prd ((1 2; 3 4);(10 20; 30 40)) 10 40 90 160
q)/sum - monadic, takes a scaler, list,dictionary or table of numeric type and returns the arithmetic sum. q)sum 2 3 4 5 6 20 q)sum (1 2; 4 5) 5 7
q)/deltas -takes a scalar, list, dictionary or table and returns the difference of each item from its predecessor. q)deltas 2 3 5 7 9 2 1 2 2 2 q)deltas `x`y`z!9 18 27 x | 9 y | 9 z | 9
q)/fills - takes scalar, list, dictionary or table of numeric type and returns a c copy of the source in which non-null items are propagated forward to fill nulls q)fills 1 0N 2 0N 4 1 1 2 2 4 q)fills `a`b`c`d! 10 0N 30 0N a | 10 b | 10 c | 30 d | 30
q)/maxs - takes scalar, list, dictionary or table and returns the cumulative maximum of the source items. q)maxs 1 2 4 3 9 13 2 1 2 4 4 9 13 13 q)maxs `a`b`c`d!9 18 0 36 a | 9 b | 18 c | 18 d | 36
q)/count - returns the number of entities in its argument. q)count 10 30 30 3 q)count (til 9) 9 q)count ([]a:9 18 27;b:1.1 2.2 3.3) 3
q)/distinct - monadic, returns the distinct entities in its argument q)distinct 1 2 3 4 2 3 4 5 6 9 1 2 3 4 5 6 9
q)/except - takes a simple list (target) as its first argument and returns a list containing the items of target that are not in its second argument q)1 2 3 4 3 1 except 1 2 3 4 3
q)/fill (^) - takes an atom as its first argument and a list(target) as its second argument and return a list obtained by substituting the first argument for every occurrence of null in target q)42^ 9 18 0N 27 0N 36 9 18 42 27 42 36 q)";"^"Life is Beautiful" "Life;is;Beautiful"
