11.5 Experimenting with Kotlin
When learning a new programming language, it is often useful to be able to enter and execute snippets of code. One of the best ways to do this with Kotlin is to use the Kotlin Playground (Figure 11-1) located at https://play.kotlinlang.org:

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
println("Welcome to Kotlin")
for (i in 1..8) {
println("i = $i")
}
}
After entering the code, click on the Run button and note...
