'''APL\360''' was the first implementation of APL using recognizable APL symbols. It ran on the [[IBM]] System/360, and was completed in November 1966 though at that time remained in use only within IBM. In 1973 its implementers, [[Larry Breed]], Dick Lathwell and [[Roger Moore]], were awarded the Grace Murray Hopper Award from the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM). It was given "for their work in the design and implementation of APL\360, setting new standards in simplicity, efficiency, reliability and response time for interactive systems." | |||
In 1975, the IBM 5100 microcomputer offered APL\360] as one of two built-in ROM-based interpreted languages for the computer, complete with a keyboard and display that supported all the special symbols used in the language. | In 1975, the IBM 5100 microcomputer offered APL\360] as one of two built-in ROM-based interpreted languages for the computer, complete with a keyboard and display that supported all the special symbols used in the language. | ||
