Hard to understand as in learning it or as in reading others code?

Forth. Gotta love that RPN . . .

For me, Unison is basically inscrutable. I know that part of it is that functional programming is 100% completely brand new to me, so there is just too much to take in all at once.

One of my retirement projects is to learn functional programming. I'm hoping that will be enough to get me far enough along to be able to figure out the other parts.

To add to others' responses, array-based languages such as APL, BQN and J are very different from most common languages

once I tried to read a Progress code (never before) and I tried to understand it, but I couldn't.

I guess Progress itself isn't too hard, but the very first contact with a code left me confused

Prolog. I like Prolog but it's unlike any other language, and it's pretty hard to fully understand.
