Best Answer

Richard Bookstaber's book, A Demon of our own Design, discusses problems faced by major banks using relying on APL for their analytics. These included:

  1. difficulties implementing loops and recursive calculations, which made derivatives pricing difficult;
  2. a desire for concise 'one liners', which hindered debugging;
  3. mismatch between APL's calendar functions and the banks', which occasionally allowed in the money derivatives to expire unexercised.
