    Code Interpreter is currently available for Plus users. (Enable beta in settings.)

    It lets ChatGPT run code, optionally with access to files you've uploaded. You can ask ChatGPT to analyze data, create charts, edit files, perform math, etc.

    Here's how it works:

    1. You upload Python code that you'd like to execute.

    2. ChatGPT sends the code to a Python interpreter.

    3. The Python interpreter executes the code and returns the results.

    4. ChatGPT present the results to you.

    This setup is like a stateful Jupyter notebook environment, allowing for the running of individual code cells. The environment has access to a variety of Python libraries, so you can use it for many different tasks, such as data analysis with pandas, scientific computations with numpy, or plotting with matplotlib.

    There are a few restrictions to keep in mind:

    * The Python environment does not have internet access, so it can't make network requests. This means you can't install additional Python packages, use APIs, or scrape websites.

    * There is a timeout of 120 seconds for each code execution. If your code takes longer than that to run, it will be stopped.

    * The Python interpreter has limited memory and CPU resources, so it may not be able to handle very large computations or data sets.
