Manual says "-c <command>
Execute the Python code in command. command can be one or more

In Windows Command Prompt I get:
C:\Programs\Python33>python -c "a=1\nprint(a)"
File "<string>", line 1
a=1\nprint(a)
^
SyntaxError: unexpected character after line continuation character
(Same if I remove quotes.)
How do I get this to work?
You could use semicolons: python -c "a = 1; print(a)" If your code is
too long for that, it sounds horrible to put it in the command line...
