This page lists people or companies that have made significant use of APL, and are famous for reasons other than APL specifically (Ken Iverson and Arthur Whitney are the only people to achieve substantial fame for APL or array programming).
Individuals
- Fred Brooks[1]
- Horst Feistel[2]
- Bill Gates[3][4][5]
- Stanley Jordan[6] has presented at APL89 and APL90 and attended Minnowbrook
- Alan Perlis
- Rob Pike develops the APL-like calculator Ivy
- Richard Stallman
- Ken Thompson was the original implementer of APL\11[7]
Organizations
Because of APL's wide reach historically, only organizations that have major APL projects or groups with many programmers are listed.
Companies
- IBM
- SimCorp presents frequently at Dyalog user meetings
Universities
