Remember to:

• Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

You are running a PowerShell command ("& C:......") at the Python interactive prompt, which expects Python code.

I think you've started an interactive Python and not left it. Try exit() to hopefully get back to a powershell prompt. Then run your & C:..... command.

Likely this is the code runner extension injecting the command into the terminal; but the extension doesn't know the python REPL is active.

tkankiuu, I tried running it on a designed terminal and you were right

program runs as it should now

[wide rover]

nah it's the builtin to vscode that does this

Code Runner runs in Output

[vale hatch]

idk how i managed to run it with the pshell

i don't really have much experience coding

[wide rover]

you might've pressed shift + enter or something

[vale hatch]

oh

def did that

[mental dawn]

Ah. Either way I've tended to avoid the magic buttons.

[vale hatch]

i was coding on the bus back home

shaky

thanks yall 4 the interest on helping

now I can deliver my homework

[wide rover]

yeah I always run by command line

[wide rover]

I suggest to disable those keyboard shortcuts

these guys

[wide rover]

btw you can tell that the python REPL is running because the prompt is >>>

[vale hatch]

oh ty

what does REPL stands 4?

srry

[wide rover]

and as you learn, you'll be able to recognize what python errors look like

like the SyntaxError: ...

[wide rover]

it stands for Read Evaluate Print Loop

[vale hatch]

thankss

[wide rover]

you put a line of code, it evaluates it, prints a value if applicable, then loops back

you can run it by running python or py with no arguments

[vale hatch]

hmm

i see

thank yall sm

ill keep posting my beginer issues in this group, hehe

[wide rover]

[wide rover]
