APL for the MCM/70 was Microcomputer Computer Machines's APL\360 clone, with the exception of Scan performing reduces over suffixes instead of prefixes. This was due to a misunderstand, but had to be perpetuated due to the user base.[1]

Internal types

According to page 220 in the user manual [2], the data types available are as follows:

  • 1-byte characters
  • 1-byte integer
  • 2-byte integer
  • 4-byte integer
  • 8-byte integer (?)
  • 8-byte (double precision) floats (?)
