PowerShell is pretty good for shell scripting.

  iwr https://example.com
You also have arbitrary precision integers and all the other stuff from .NET

  $b = [BigInt]::Parse('10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000')

Powershell has god awful syntax though. There's no way I'd want to do anything remotely significant with it.
