奇普（Quipu或Khipu）是古代印加人的一種結繩記事的方法，用來計數或者記錄歷史。它是由許多顏色的繩結編成的，不同的繩結有不同的含義。這種結繩記事方法已經失傳，目前還沒有人能夠了解其全部含義。這種計數方法在美國華盛頓國立美國印第安人博物館的長期展覽「偉大的印加之路」（The Great Inka Road）中有實物展覽，並附有詮釋。
奇普因其特殊的打結方法，可從視覺上分辨結數（繞圈數）。其計數方法為，以單條繩上的結數數量及位置進行組合記錄。位於繩下部的繩結數量，可表示從一到九的數字，十，百，千等量級則以單獨繩結依次在繩高位打結作為記錄。若該數字為個位數（1-9），則該繩繩結數量不超於九。
舉例，若一條繩底部為七結，中部為三結，頂部一結，則該條繩表示的數字為137。
