Does anyone know the language J?

I was looking at one of the forums on Project Euler, and someone solved a problem using J.  His entire code was:

+/+/1,4#2*>:i.500

My equivalent C# code was about 30 lines. To me, the above code is basically unreadable, but maybe with a little more knowledge it wouldn't be.  (Maybe.)  If you use J, could you tell me what you use it for?  Do "real programs" look like this?
