REPL Support in Interviews

With new additions and improvements, HackerRank CodePair, (a live online interview platform for hiring companies to conduct coding interviews) now comes with REPL(Read-eval-print-loop) support, an interactive shell that takes user inputs, executes blocks of code and returns the result to the user in realtime. Using REPL(Read-eval-print-loop), candidates can check for correctness before writing code and evaluate piecewise code. 

Prerequisites

1. You, the interviewer, must be logged in to your HackerRank for Work account and have access to CodePair. 

Steps

1. Upon logging into the CodePair session, the interviewer can invite candidates, import a question from the HackerRank library, and also choose to have multiple questions or tabs to use during the interview. 

REPL

1. With REPL, interviewers can now review the candidate's code in real-time, ask questions, and understand the candidate’s approach to problem-solving instantly. 
2. REPL is enabled for Python, JavaScript and Ruby, and is available under the Console tab. You can directly type code into this tab or copy-paste code from your editor into the console and execute it in realtime.

We currently, support REPL for Python, JavaScript and Ruby.
