= Programming Style =
Arthur Whitney's style is usually associated with compact and practical code. This style is generally reflected in K and can be seen across a large body of his work. This has been adopted by many K programmers in their code as well.
<blockquote>...the thing about the languages that I implement is that there are no libraries: those 50 operations are it. Everybody builds from there, and the resulting programs are extremely short.</blockquote><ref>https://queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=1531242</ref>
The general idea is to have as much relevant, highly optimized code fit in one single screen. This can be seen and observed in open source repositories like [[ngn/k]] and [[ktye/i]].
