PARI is a package for mathematics (number theory).
More info at http://pari.math.u-bordeaux.fr/. The package can be built by "compile from source distribution", but there exist some packages for OpenSUSE Linux and Debian Linux, and OpenIndiana. The developers of PARI are aware of the existence of the OpenIndiana package although that the OpenIndiana package is provided by OpenIndiana (from the OpenIndiana repository), not by the PARI team. As the Debian package https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/pari-gp by Bill Allombert says : " 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 is also available as a C library to allow for faster computations. Originally developed by Henri Cohen and his co-workers (University Bordeaux I, France), PARI is now under the GPL and maintained by Karim Belabas with the help of many volunteer contributors. This package contains the GP calculator." The new 2.17.0 package is: pkg://openindiana.org/library/math/[email protected],5.11-2024.0.0.0:20241004T191814Z A subset of the elliptic curve data from http://johncremona.github.io/ecdata/ is in: pkg://openindiana.org/library/math/pari-elldata The "pari-elldata" package for PARI installs both pari (gp) and a set of data files for elliptic curves. After installing either "pari" or "pari-elldata", to run PARI, the command "gp" can be used to start the "GP calculator".
