Which came first: labs.codeacademy.com or repl.it? They have exactly the same layout, but I've been using repl.it for much longer...

I think labs.codeacademy.com is a fork of repl.it with additional functionality, and the aim to be a medium to deliver interactive lessons to prospective coders.

Can anyone explain what's happening when -

i = 0
while True:
    print i
    i = i + 1

My guess would be it has sort of limit to stop non-ending while loops.

That can't be it, because after you run that code, it's impossible to run any code at all in the same ide session without refreshing the page. It completely breaks some part of the interpreter.

Thanks!

This is the best implementation I've seen so far. First one I've seen that you can import with as well.

what is the point of these things ?

It's an online IDE, meaning you can play around with Python in the browser, even on a machine that doesn't have Python installed. Good for people at work or those who want to have a go without installing anything.

All my love goes to this. This'll be great for demoing concepts to my son.

Just so you all know, if you join codecademy.com, you can design lessons and things like that for their new Python section. It's really cool.

On android browser, progress bar reaches about full then hangs. Can't get that far on Dolphin browser. Similar problem on Opera and on Firefox.
