IIPLE: Integrated Interactive Programming Lab Environment

This paper presents an interactive educational programming environment designed to offer real-time assistance, specifically tailored for novice programmers encountering coding challenges. Many programmers, when embarking on their coding journey encounter difficulties in grasping fundamental programming concepts, resulting in coding errors. Recovering from such situations often necessitates experienced guidance to understand the root causes of these challenges. However, seeking personalized guidance can be time-consuming or even infeasible due to resource constraints. This paper introduces a solution developed to address these issues, providing a platform for programmers to seek real-time guidance and assistance through an AI-powered chatbot.
