REPL on console emacs

Question

I'm using the console version of emacs (that is, I'm SSH'ed into a remote machine and using emacs there) and I was wondering how (assuming it's possible) to start up the REPL from there. I'm pretty new to Lisp and emacs.

Answer 1

How about M-x ielm?

ielm: Inferior Emacs Lisp Mode

Answer 2

You can run a terminal emulator with M-x term in Emacs and use any REPL you like in there. I prefer it to inferior modes, but I think it's just a matter of taste.
