Ivy is an interpreter for an APL-like array language that works as an interactive calculator. It is written in Go and supports bignum arithmetic, floating point, text, and user-defined operators.
Use cases
- run APL-style array calculations from the terminal
- compute with arbitrary-precision bignum arithmetic
- experiment with an APL-like language interactively
- do quick vector and matrix math in a REPL
- learn array programming with a simple interpreter
When to choose
- you want an APL-like calculator without a full APL installation
- you need exact big-integer or rational arithmetic in a REPL
- you want a small, self-contained Go-based math interpreter
When to avoid
- you need a production-grade, standards-compliant APL system
- you need a GUI-first calculator experience
- you need a stable language with long-term compatibility guarantees
