Now that we have spent a lot of time installing Java, it's time to get your fingers burnt a bit. As we are using Java 18.9, there is a new tool that helps developers play around with the language. This is a Read-Eval-Print-Loop (REPL) tool that many language toolsets contain and there were also implementations from Java, but version 9 is the first that contains this feature off the shelf.
REPL is a tool that has interactive prompt and language commands that can be directly entered without editing some standalone file. The entered commands are executed directly and then the loop starts again, waiting for the user to type in the next command.
This is a very effective tool to try out some language constructs without the delay ...
