Aldor is a programming language.

It is the successor of A# as the extension language of the Axiom computer algebra system.

Aldor combines imperative, functional, and object-oriented features.

It has an elaborate type system, allowing types to be used as first-class values.

Aldor’s syntax is heavily influenced by Pascal, but it is optionally indentation-sensitive, using whitespace characters and the off-side rule, like Python.

In its current implementation, it is compiled, but an interactive listener is provided.
