Rank
The rank of a noun is the count of its axes. An atom has rank 0, a list rank 1, a table rank 2, and an array with 5 axes has rank 5. The rank of an array is very important and determines in a significant way how verbs act upon it.
The shape of an array is a list with as many numbers as the array has axes. This means that the count of the shape of an array is the rank of the array.
