They're really not in this case.
play.rust-lang.org is a bite sized code compile \ execute environment that lets you play, explore, delect different compilers and share failed build to get help. Its fantastically useful ... but its not a REPL, and being one would in no way make it more useful.
REPLs are useful where a few lines can make a meaningful program.
That is not the case in rust.
- tormeh 12y agoI use the REPL to try out syntax I don't quite remember and to ascertain myself of how the libraries work, something that I have to do often. It's not an absolute necessity, but it makes coding a lot faster.
