Chapter 1 in APL2 in Depth, 1995, pp 1-52 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Compared with first-generation APL, APL2 brought about a vast explosion in the amount of data types and structures which can be modelled. This chapter starts with a discussion of data structures in APL2, beginning with nested arrays and followed by some notes on complex numbers. There then follows a discussion of the principal APL2 primitive functions under the headings of Construction Selection Replacement Restructuring Comparison and Enquiry
