I've been using Julia as my CLI calculator for a few years now - cool to see this post! While teaching an online Linear Algebra class, I would use Julia to construct examples and quickly solve them. The syntax sugar of all the functional idioms make it very fun and easy to express more complicated ideas. This is a cool introduction- I was not aware (or had forgotten) about function chaining. Really curious about using more of Latexify as well :)
On an unrelated note, (as a mathematician) I have started using Maple a lot more as my analytic computational helper. Never really gave it the time of day in years past - it is quite powerful and intuitive. Funny note: I recently copied and pasted output of a Maple command into my Julia code and it was syntactically correct!
