How to use Notepad to run code

Notepad is a popular text editor, but it also has the ability to run code. Here's how to run code using Notepad:

1. Install required plugins

To run code, you need to install the appropriate plugins. Go to Plugins >Plugin Manager, search for and install the "NppExec" and "NPPFTP" plugins.

2. Configuring the NppExec plug-in

Open "Plugins" > "NppExec" > "Configuration", under the "Compiler" tab , set the compiler path and command line parameters. Settings may differ for different languages.

For example, for C, the compiler path can be set to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\vc\bin\cl.exe, and the command line parameters can be set to -nologo -o "%e.exe" "%f".

3. Writing Code

Write your code in Notepad, save the file and give it .cpp or . py and other appropriate file extensions.

4. Run the Code

There are two ways to run the code:

• Through the menu: Go to "Plugins" > "NppExec" > "Compile" and select the appropriate compile command.
• By shortcut: Use the default shortcut F5 or a custom shortcut you specify in the NppExec configuration.

Notepad will compile the code and display the results in the output window. If the compilation is successful, you can see the output of the compilation command in the output window, along with any errors or warnings.
