 3. **See Results Instantly**: Any output, return values, or errors are displayed right away. If your code contains expressions, REPL will evaluate and print them for you.
 4. **Iterate**: The loop resets, and you can immediately enter more code, building on previous commands or testing new lines independently.

+Connect your board, and click on the **RUN** button with an empty script, then enter the following things in the REPL, line by line.

+When writing `name` in the REPL, (after `name = "Pedro"`), we should get:
