Abstract

We are applying prototyping method using APL to a commercial compiler's development Project.This paper will discuss the following matters based on our one year experience of the project:Merits of APL as a prototyping language.An environment of the prototype.A representation of tables and the intermediate language of compilers in an APL environment.A strategy of transforming the APL prototype into final product written in Pascal.Evaluation of this method.
