Code Execution API

This API is used to execute code snippets in different languages. Given below are the details of this API

Route: /execute

This route takes 4 fields:

1. langauge: The language of the code snippet.

   Click to see supported languages

   • python
   • rust
   • cpp
   • c
   • java

2. code: The code snippet to be executed.

3. timeout: The maximum time in seconds for which the code should run. If the code runs for more than this time, it will be terminated.

   • default: 5 seconds
   • max: 60 seconds

4. max_memory: The maximum memory in KB (kilobytes) that the code can use. If the code uses more memory than this, it will be terminated.

   • default: 32768KB (or 32MB)
   • max: 131072KB (or 128MB)
