Timing of Code Input Request

Question

When executing code in the Code Playground, why are inputs requested before any preceding outputs are shown? Can the inputs not be requested at the moment it should be entered, according to the program?

Answer 1

Our phones don’t compile or run the code, it gets sent to SL servers, along with input if it is required, and it gets compiled and run there. The output then gets sent back. This is also why only text output.

Answer 2

@Vlad Serbu
I don’t know, but it’s not letting me open that link at al.

Answer 3

@Jacob But if that were the case then why does http://cpp.sh support dynamic input?

Answer 4

Apparently cpp.sh doesn't work over https. Interesting... In any case, the new link should work.
