APL is the universal programming language designed in 1962 which is especially suitable for computations with complex data structures. Various types of applications can be written with APL including database and automatic control systems. APL is also often used for writing a skeleton of application while complementary modules are written in other languages. This stitched book introduces Dyadic APL v. 7.2 by informal style in the following six parts: 1. Elements and ideas of APL, 2. Simple manipulations with fields of data, 3. Other primitive functions, 4. Other primitive operators, 5. User's functions and operators, 6. Appendices. Unfortunately, the functions for graphical user interface and for files are not included. The book is clearly written using many examples and can be recommended to beginners as an introductory text.
