Line 184:
APL ''never ever'' stood for Array Programming Language. It took its name from the book ''A Programming Language''. Period. Please stop trying to revise history. [[Rlw]] [[User talk:Rlw|(Talk)]] 03:06, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
== Shared Variables ==
I rewrote the [[IPSANET]] article and found it necessary to mention some APL related things which are not described in wiki:
1] Shared variables were the basis of IPSA NSVP. APL SV introduced shared variables in 1973. SHARP APL added them later. Perhaps a brief article on shared variables would be desirable.
2] SHARP APL is an instance of an APL interpreter. There were many other interpreters. Adin Falkoff attempted to list the IBM interpreters. A more complete list would be desirable.
