I might be not the average user, but then again users are usually very heterogeneous. So here is my Julia journey:
When I want to experience a new language, I got to a place on the web, where I can try it.
For Python, there are https://www.online-python.com/ https://www.online-python.com/ and many others.
For PHP there are https://3v4l.org https://3v4l.org and many others.
For Javascript there are https://jsfiddle.net/ https://jsfiddle.net/ and many others.
But every time I think "Hey, I might give Julia a try", I go to Google and type "try julia online" and find nothing. Every site either wants me to sign up or is dysfunctional. So I think "What? That cannot be. Lets try a different search". And search for "julia online repl". Again. Nothing works. And I give up.
I just did this again.
And I might try again in a year or so.
That's the situation here regarding Julia.
- maxnoe 4y agoThis should cataoult you into an example jupyter notebook with a julia kernel: https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/binder-examples/demo-julia/HEAD?filepath=demo.ipynb https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/binder-examples/demo-julia/HEAD?f...
- TekMol 4y agoI'm not looking for a notebook. I want to try new languages in a repl. Where I type a statement, hit enter, see a result, repeat.
- oivey 4y agohttps://replit.com/languages/julia https://replit.com/languages/julia works. I recall there being at least one other offering for hosted Jupyter notebooks. https://mybinder.org/ https://mybinder.org/ maybe?
- williamstein 4y agoWe offer Julia at https://cocalc.com https://cocalc.com both via Jupyter notebooks and Julia’s own Pluto notebooks. That said, Julia tends to be a lot more memory intensive than other language we support, so the free tier is not as useful.
- TekMol 4y agoIf there is a way to get into a Julia repl, I couldn't figure out how.
- TekMol 4y agoNo, it does not. When I type "print(1)" into the left box and click "Run" all that happens is that the "Sign up" button wiggles.
- markkitti 4y agoTry `println(1)`
