PARI/GP is a widely used computer algebra system designed for fast computations in number theory (factorizations, algebraic number theory, elliptic curves...), but also contains a large number of other useful functions to compute with mathematical entities such as matrices, polynomials, power series, algebraic numbers etc., and a lot of transcendental functions.
 
PARI/GP is composed of two parts: a [[C]] library called PariPARI and an interface, GPgp, to this library. GP scripts are concise, easy to write, and resemble mathematical language. (Terminology: the scripting language of gp is called GP.)
 
There are other interfaces to PariPARI beside GPgp, for example [http://math.univ-lille1.fr/~ramare/ServeurPerso/GP-PARI/ PariEmacs], [http://go.helms-net.de/sw/paritty/pari_tty_einf_en.html Pari-tty], and [http://www.skalatan.de/pariguide/ pariGUIde]. Similarly, there are other libraries that extend PariPARI: [http://code.google.com/p/pari-python/ pari-python], [http://www.sagemath.org/ SAGE] (Python), [http://search.cpan.org/dist/Math-Pari/ Math::Pari] (Perl), and [http://clisp.sourceforge.net/impnotes/pari.html Pari] (CLISP).
