You can also use the IEx
(Interactive Elixir) shell to evaluate expressions and execute code.
If you are on Linux or Mac, just type iex on your bash and press enter:
$ iex
If you are on a Windows machine, type:
C:\ iex.bat
Then you will enter into the IEx REPL (Read, Evaluate, Print, Loop), and you can just type something like:
iex(1)> "Hello World"
"Hello World"
If you want to load a script while opening an IEx REPL, you can do this:
$ iex script.exs
Given script.exs
is your script. You can now call functions from the script in the console.
