[[File:Ilo Nanpa.jpg|thumb|{{tp|ilo nanpa}} and its manual.]]
'''{{tp|ilo nanpa}}''' (originally title-cased in English as {{tok|Ilo Nanpa}}) is a physical calculator based on [[Toki Pona]]'s [[number]] system designed by {{tok|jan Sate}} (Sadale).
 
==Functionality==
{{tp|ilo nanpa}} displays numbers additively, using LEDs that correspond to the numbers {{tp|wan}}, {{tp|tu}}, {{tp|luka}}, {{tp|mute}}, {{tp|ale}} (here spelled {{tp|ali}}), {{tp|ale ale}}, and {{tp|ale ale ale ale ale}}. An additional LED lights up when the number is {{tp|ala}} or negative (signified as {{tp|weka}}). It can store and display values from -−1600 to 1600.
 
Each number word has a button that adds or subtracts it from the current number, depending on the state of the {{tp|en/weka}} switch. There are also 4 extra buttons: {{tp|ala}} sets the number to 0, {{tp|pana}} stores it in memory, {{tp|kama}} adds or subtracts the stored number (allowing for a crude form of multiplication), and {{tp|tenpo}} turns on its timer/stopwatch mode. In this mode, it adds or subtracts 1 every second (or 20 times per second if the current number is negative), stopping with an alarm sound when it reaches 0 or one of the limit values.<ref>{{tok|jan Sate}} (14 January 2019).

=={{tp|ilo nanpa lili}}==
{{tp|ilo nanpa lili}} is a simpler version of {{tp|ilo nanpa}}, showcased at {{tp|[[suno pi toki pona]]}}. It only has 4 LEDs, corresponding to the numbers {{tp|ala}}, {{tp|wan}}, {{tp|tu}}, and {{tp|mute}}, corresponding to the [[Numbers#Simple system|simpler number system]] of Toki Pona that doesn't differentiate between numbers above 2. It also only has 2 buttons, one to add 1 to the current count and one to reset it to {{tp|ala}}. {{tp|ilo nanpa lili}} is only sold in the form of kits, meant to be assembled by the customer.

{{Start section|Fun}}
"{{tp|ilo pi nanpa}}" is a {{w|YouTube Poop}} of the {{tp|ilo nanpa}} promotional videos.<ref>{{cite YouTube|id=zvJZ5TAqHg0|title={{tok|ilo pi nanpa}}|trans-title=Tool of Number|language=tok|author={{tok|jan Kita}}|channel=hecko|handle=hecko-yes|date=10 May 2023|access-date=3 November 2023|quote=}}</ref> It is named after a common error made by learners of Toki Pona. {{tp|[[pi]]}} rebrackets a multi-word modifier, so the phrase {{tp|ilo <del>pi</del> nanpa}} would mean the same thing as {{tp|ilo nanpa}}. Thus, the video title is purposefully ungrammatical.
 
In reference to "{{tp|ilo pi nanpa}}", other videos have been named after similar grammar errors. For example, the title of "{{tp|[[sina li nanpa]]}}" uses {{tp|[[li]]}} even though the [[subject]] is only {{tp|[[sina]]}}.<ref>{{cite YouTube|id=sYUgdFJkjmY|title=sina li nanpa|trans-title=You're are Numbers|language=tok|author=|channel=kili potato_9898|handle=kilipotato_9898|date=11 September 2023|access-date=3 November 2023|quote=}}</ref>
