u/michaelnovati, which coding platform is typically used? I'm wondering if running the code is allowed. Appreciated your great feedback on this thread.

I heard they use CoderPad now? In the past they used CollabEdit. They also have an in-house platform too. So even if you use Coderpad , you should practice NOT relying on syntax auto-complete and NOT relying on running code to see if it works. They will accept syntax errors and minor/trivial mistakes, if you explain the code clearly and what you are trying to do. Even if you could run/compile. They want to see you understand the code enough to explain how a test case will work, rather than just run the code and see.
