Hello,
Just to be clear, it is not my post. The original post was on Medium https://medium.com/@iphoenix179/running-cuda-c-c-in-jupyter-or-how-to-run-nvcc-in-google-colab-663d33f53772
Even more interesting that you use the 2nd version of the plugin.
The cell command you use - %%cuda -n ... - Creates a file with the given name.
If I understand correctly, you want to load an external file from your Google Drive. It is an interesting use case, I can look into it.
To resolve your issue I'd recommend to either copy your code into the cell. Or as another option copy your cuda source file into the home directory and then run a cell with

%%cuda_run
# This line just to bypass an exeption and can contain any text

Yes. This is exactly what I want to do. thanks for considering this option

%%cuda_run

I am still not sure how to use "cuda_run" with my Cuda file in my home directory. do you have an example of using cuda_run ?

cuda_run will take all cuda files in your home dir and will compile and run them.
use it as in the initial comment. Just will an empty cell with exactly this

%%cuda_run
# This line just to bypass an exeption and can contain any text
