The current version of Zark contains 28 units (chapters) instead of the 26 reviewed by Emily Timson. The last two units cover encode, decode, quad-divide, and more. The current version is available for APL*PLUS PC (STSC), APL*PLUS II (STSC), and mainframe APL2 (IBM). Other APL platforms are under consideration.
The product is formally called the “Zark APL Tutor”. The company is “Zark Incorporated”. With the purchase of the Tutor, you get a courtesy one-year subscription to the quarterly publication “Zark APL Tutor News”, a copy of the “Zark Library of Utility Functions”, and a free upgrade of the Tutor a year after you buy it.
The price is $299 US dollars for the PC versions and $5000 for the APL2 Mainframe version.
