The inventor of APL, Ken Iverson, also made the language J which is very much influenced by APL but does not use the special characters of APL. Think of it as ASCII-APL. It is a very nice language to program in and they have a decent user community. It is open source and is incredibly fast and looks at the first glance as cryptic as APL.
