My only knowledge of APL is second hand via Scott Meyer's "More Effective C++" where he gives it as an example of the benefits offered by lazy-evaluation, saying that rather than compute the results of each statement in series it makes a compound statement where it computes only the result needed.
In my own situation APL is a language looking for a problem - I don't currently have a use case for it.
