Key Features

  • Dynamic Code Execution: Compile and execute code at runtime with op()(<string>)() and $sys().eval()
  • Execution Trees: Direct manipulation of $OP objects for advanced meta-programming
  • Multi-Syntax Support: JSON, XML, HTML (native), SQL/PROLOG/LISP (example implementations), and custom syntax through executable BNF
  • Parallel Processing: Built-in parallel data operations with .map(), .filter(), .reduce()
  • Comprehensive Vector Operations: Complete matrix operations, linear algebra, statistical functions, and creative capabilities
  • Machine Learning: Linear regression, statistical analysis, and ML algorithms using optimized vector operations
  • Advanced Pattern Matching: 100% ripgrep compatibility with binary data support and Unicode awareness
  • HTTP/HTTPS Networking: Complete HTTP client with SSL/TLS, proxy support, cookie handling, and chunked encoding
  • Comprehensive Cryptography: Production-ready cryptographic capabilities with OpenSSL 3.5.2 integration (RSA, EC, DH, AES, hash functions, key exchange)
  • Unlimited Precision: Native support for arbitrary-precision arithmetic
  • Cross-Platform: Runs on Windows, macOS (Apple Silicon), and Linux

New Features

  • Searchable API Reference: Find all built-in functions, types, and methods in one place.
  • Tag-based Filtering: Use tags in the API Reference and throughout the docs to filter by topic, type, or use case.
  • Mobile-Friendly: This site is fully responsive—try it on your phone or tablet!

Recent Major Enhancements

  • Comprehensive Vector Operations: Complete matrix operations, linear algebra, statistical functions, and creative capabilities
  • Advanced Sorting & Selection: Custom comparison functions, order vectors, signed/unsigned comparison
  • Creative Function Application: vec * [op(x){...}] for random generation, pattern creation, custom transformations
  • Enhanced Documentation: Improved organization, navigation, and cross-references
  • Mixed Data Type Vectors: Automatic type conversion and "best assumptions" for operations
