elixir: Evaluate Elixir code by passing it as an argument.

elixir

$ elixir -e "${code}"

try on your machine

The command "elixir -e "${code}"" is used to execute a command in the Elixir programming language from the command line.

Here's the breakdown of the command:

"elixir": This is the name of the Elixir programming language interpreter. It is used to run Elixir code.
"-e": This flag is used to specify the code to be executed. "${code}" is a placeholder that represents the actual Elixir code that you want to execute.

When you run this command, the Elixir interpreter will execute the code specified after the "-e" flag. The output of the code will be displayed on the command line.

For example, if you have the following code: "IO.puts("Hello, Elixir!")", you can run it using the command "elixir -e "IO.puts("Hello, Elixir!")"". This command would print "Hello, Elixir!" on the command line.
