How to call a library in vscode?

VSCode is a text editor that does not directly invoke library functions. However, you can add support for library functions by using extension plugins. Here are some common extension plugins that can help you call library functions in VSCode.

  1. IntelliSense is a built-in feature in VSCode that provides smart suggestions to help you use function libraries. As you type in a function’s name, it automatically displays the function’s parameters and documentation.
  2. Code Runner is a plugin used for executing code snippets, supporting various programming languages and libraries. You can select the desired library and run the code directly in the editor.
  3. Language-specific extensions are specialized plugins available for specific programming languages, often providing support for specific function libraries like NumPy and Pandas for Python.
  4. Custom Snippets: You can create custom code snippets to encapsulate frequently used function calls as keyboard shortcuts. This way, you can automatically insert function calls by typing the keyboard shortcut.
  5. Manually importing libraries in code: If you are using a programming language that requires manually importing libraries, you can use the appropriate import statement in your code to call the library. VSCode will provide intelligent suggestions based on the import statements in your code.

Please note that the availability of the above methods depends on the programming language and function library you are using. You can search and install extension plugins that suit your project requirements in the VSCode extension marketplace.
