- zerr 6y agoThanks! Btw, what would be the open source alternative (of APL) that is popular and used in production?
- yumaikas 6y agoProbably J, if I had to guess. I'm unaware of how much production use it has.
- jetti 6y agoThere is a GNU implementation of APL (https://www.gnu.org/software/apl/ https://www.gnu.org/software/apl/). Not sure if it is used in commercial applications or not. I would imagine that if you are doing commercial work with APL you are going to be paying for Dyalog.
- zerr 6y ago> you are going to be paying for Dyalog Not really. As I see APL is ISO standardized and there are many implementations.
- jetti 6y agoThere are many implementations but not as many that are active (here is a brief list https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APL_(programming_language)#Modern_implementations https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APL_(programming_language)#Mod...). Dyalog provides more than just a interpreter/compiler but an entire development environment.
