Older Versions of APL

Overview

This page is for documenting examples of older versions of APL. This is primarily for nostalgic reasons.

APL \ 1130

A simulator is available for APL \ 1130. User KymFarnik has a build that uses 2741 emulation and Teraterm and is available here IBM1130 Simulator with APL \ 1130

A copy of the student primer is available as a scanned PDF.

Here is a sample of APL \ 1130 implementing Conway's Game of Life
