Is there any plan to release C++ test sandbox? #16

As @davidhchoi mentioned here, C++ sandbox is complicated to release, but as we can see C++ code is take up a large percentage of code labels. Is there any plan to release C++ test sandbox from DeepMind AlphaCode Team?

Unfortunately, there are no plans to release this. The main goal of this open sourcing was to release the dataset and an example of executing samples, rather than releasing a sandbox for all common languages. Though creating a sandbox for other languages is tricky, we don't think it's a major research or engineering contribution, and there should be other open source libraries you can use for this (e.g. ones used for competitive programming websites).

Thank you for your information @davidhchoi . I will work on it.
