Rodrigo Girão Serrão
Rodrigo showcases some of the interesting features and quirks of APL, like its affinity for mathematics, its ability to deal with large data sets, and its array-oriented programming style. After this session you should have a general idea of APL's capabilities and the potential it offers you, and hopefully you'll feel an urge to learn some more – either because you got hooked (like Rodrigo did!) or simply because you want to learn how to think in an array-oriented way, which is very relevant in many situations today, for example, when working with GPUs.
