Agena is an easy-to-learn procedural programming language suited for everyday usage. It has been implemented as an interpreter and can be used in scientific, educational, linguistic, and many other applications. Its syntax looks like very simplified Algol 68 with elements taken from Lua and SQL.

This software is distributed as compressed package. You have to download and manually install it; if prerequisites are required, you will have to manually install them too.

Manual installation

Available both as ZIP and WarpIN package:

  • download the ZIP package to temporary directory and unpack it to destination folder;
  • the WarpIN package is self-installing.

See below for download link(s).

You can install the prerequisites with rpm running the following string in a command line:

yum install libc libcx libgcc1 libssp libstdc++6 libstdc++ libsupc++6 libsupc++ libgcc-fwd readline ncurses expat sqlite

Following ones are the download links for manual installation:

Agena v. 6.4.6 (25/11/2025, Alexander Walz) Readme/What's new
agena >> `The Power of Procedural Programming` 6.4.6 Catoosa, November 25, 2025 - New `calc.horner` takes a point and a table, sequence, register or numarray of coefficients and evaluates a polynomial via Horner's rule. The coefficients can be given in ascending (default) or descending order of power. - `calc.eta` can now process fractional arguments, using 80-bit floating-proint precision when available for better results. - New `calc.invPsi` approximates the Inverse Psi/Digamma function. - New `mapm.checkxnumber` and `mapm.checkcnumber` check whether all their arguments are MAPM real or complex numbers, respectively and issue an error otherwise. - New `mapm.isxnumber` and `mapm.iscnumber` check whether all their arguments are MAPM real or complex numbers, respectively and return `true` or `false`. - `mapm.xfactorial` has been extended and now returns correct values for positive and negative fractional arbitrary-precision numbers. Contrary to integral values, with fractional numbers the function uses Spouge approximation which produces pretty good results. - New `mapm.xgamma` implements the Gamma function. With fractional values, the return is a Spouge approximation. - New `mapm.xpsi` approximates the Psi/Digamma function. - Added the alias RETURN() to the `maple` package. - Corrected the index of the Agena Reference.

Agena v. 4.12.5 (20/5/2025, Alexander Walz) Readme/What's new
4.12.5 Merryville, May 20, 2025 - In the past, the bitshift operators <<< (left shift), >>> (right shift), <<<< (left rotation) and >>>> (right rotation) had different behaviour across platforms when a number at or beyond the +/-2^32 threshold has been processed. This has been changed and the results in these situations are now the same. Likewise, `bytes.numto32` is now returning the same results on all platforms when casting a value at or beyond the +/-2^32 border. This also benefits various functions in the `hashes` package as their returns are now the same across platforms, as well. To check the new underflow or overflow behaviour, use `math.wrap`. - New function `math.fmod` works and returns the same result as the binary `symmod` operator. It has just been added to facilitate porting C code to Agena. - The results of `hashes.mix`, `hashes.crc32`, `hashes.crc8`, `hashes.reflect`, `hashes.parity`, `hashes.fibmod`, `hashes.interweave`, `hashes.jinteger` may now be different with out-of-range input, that is with arguments at or beyond the 2^32 threshold, depending on your platform.
