APL\360 Primer
Program Nos. 5734-XM1
5736-XM1

This primer provides an introduction to the
APL/360 system and to the APL programming
language. It discusses the mechanics of using
the system, and shows how to write represent-
ative programs for a variety of applications.
The treatment is elementary. For a discussion
of advanced system features and available opera-
tions, refer to the APL/360 User's Manual
( GH 2 0 - 06 8 3) .
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

This Primer was written by Paul Berry of the IBM
Research Division, T. J. Watson Research Center, Yorktown
Heights, New York. The text benefitted greatly from the
suggestions, criticisms, and comments of the readers of the
various early drafts, and especially those of A. D. Falkoff,
K. E. Iverson, J. C. McPherson, L. M. Breed, and R. H.
Lathwell. The final draft was completed with the technical
assistance of Miss C. Conroy.

The text was entered at a terminal, and edited and
composed by an APL\360 program. The master pages were then
typed by the computer at the terminal, using an IBM courier
typing element.
