Saving files in SoloLearn?

I don't think we can, but is it possible to save files to SoloLearn servers? you know like a .txt or maybe a .json file? I'm curious because my next code is gonna need to do this. Edit: this is actually an interesting development, this is supposed to print the entire path but it doesn't. https://code.sololearn.com/cTujXEUtMPRF/?ref=app

You can do save files, you can also read from those files, but it's limited to per-run usage only. Files get wiped once your program ends.

@Dipan Nanda, for what I want to do, I might be saving hundreds if not thousands of files, so that's not viable

It does not answer you question, but I would like to know if it can be done as well. If it could be done it would allow for bigger and better codes.

Well, here's what I was thinking, our codes that we create here get saved somewhere. I know JavaScript can use Node.js to save files and PHP can save files. I need JavaScript for the code I wanna do. So I guess a better question is, does SL support Node. But if we could access the file region our codes are saved in, could it be possible to save other files there?

@Edward, hmmm, okay I retract my statement, but I dunno how they would separate executable processes

No, it's supposed to print the entire path of where the code is saved, but it doesn't.

So pretty much no persistence? Well that's garbage

i think before the files, we need to see real time code inputs

@Dipan That saving a few file would not be a big deal. I wonder want people will do with that. It could go both ways.

I got it. Real time input would be great from the app/sites web languages.
