hi all;
can u let me know how to read an input string from the keyboard?
In Python 2.6 and lower:
raw_input(prompt)
Example program:
name = raw_input("Enter your name:")
print "Hello", name
raw_input("Press any key to exit.")
In Python 3
Example program:
name = input("Enter your name:")
print ("Hello", name)
input("Press any key to exit.")
The purpose of the last line - when you run the program by
double-clicking or equivalent this keeps the window open so you can see
the results.
