Ideone

Earlier when you wanted to try some new programming language, you needed development environment to your PC. Not anymore, as there is a selection of on-line tools for many tasks. For example there is Cloud9 IDE for Node.js applications as well as HTML, CSS, PHP, Java, Ruby and several other languages.

There are also other enviroments worth to check out. Ideone is an online compiler and debugging tool which allows you to compile source code and execute it online in more than 60 programming languages. Choose a programming language, enter the source code with optional input data… and you are ready to go! There is a collection of samples to see how to write code which works correctly and how to get started easily.

Example:

ideone

 

Ideone can run your programs in cloud and show results on web browser. There are some limitations.  Programs are allowed to create up to 15 processes. You can read existing files but you can’t create new ones. For communication with the program, stdin and stdout should be used.

Ideone is allows you to store your code to it.  How long my codes will be stored on Ideone? Forever promises the service. Visibility determines how the program is visible on ideone.com and who can access it. Possible values are:

  • public – everyone has access to the code and it is listed at the recent codes page;
  • secret – everyone has access to the code and it is not listed at the recent codes page;
  • private – only author of the code has access to it and it is not listed at the recent codes page. To use this level of visibility you need to be logged in.

Ideone is really a service worth check out.
