    So it looks like a totally different data flow style, and (I think) geared toward writing then running programs, whereas Stacker is more for interactive stack-oriented calculator tasks.

        I’d say an important part of this calculator’s interaction model is doing something, getting a result, then doing something else to that result. That’s not too bad in the regular Python interpreter either.

        For example, in Python:

        >>> 5
        5
        >>> 4 + _
        9
        >>> 2 * _
        18
        

        In Stacker:

        >>> 5
        [5]
        >>> 4 +
        [9]
        >>> 2 *
        [18]
        

        Does Hy have something like the Python interpreter’s _?
