The `write_code` function prompts the user to provide a plain English description of a program or function and the programming language it should be written in. The function then generates the code based on the user's input and writes it to a specified file.

Usage

write_code(filename, chatlog_id = ".__CURRENTCODEFILE__", ...)

Arguments

filename

A character string representing the name of the file where the generated code will be saved.

chatlog_id

An optional character string representing the chatlog ID. Defaults to ".__CURRENTCODEFILE__". This ID is used to maintain the conversation history with the chatbot API.

...

Additional arguments to pass to the chat_completion() function.

Value

Returns the name of the file containing the generated code.
