Pure CLI REPL

Description​

Read-Eval-Print-Loop (REPL) is an interactive shell that processes Node.js expressions. The shell reads JavaScript code the user enters, evaluates the result of interpreting the line of code, prints the result to the user, and loops until the user signals to quit. It is a built-in CLI tool inside Pure Gen that you can use to quick test and quick use all methods without creating a single file to use it.

Attention! some methods won't take any effect inside REPL like: seed, setLocale, getSeed

To exit REPL you can use ctrl+c on your keyboard or simply type .exit
