Read Eval Print Loop

A read–eval–print loop (REPL), also termed an interactive top-level or language shell, is a simple interactive computer programming environment that takes single user inputs, executes them, and returns the result to the user; a program written in a REPL environment is executed piecewise. Common examples include command-line shells and similar environments for programming languages, and the technique is very characteristic of scripting languages.
