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.

If you double click your py file to open it, it will keep a terminal window open for as long as your script is running. Likely after you press enter in your input(), your script finishes and the terminal window closes.

#

To keep it open, open a terminal window (cmd) first, then run your script with the py command

Pasting large amounts of code

If your code is too long to fit in a codeblock in Discord, you can paste your code here:
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/

After pasting your code, save it by clicking the Paste! button in the bottom left, or by pressing CTRL + S. After doing that, you will be navigated to the new paste's page. Copy the URL and post it here so others can see it.

^ this could be the issue if your script is located in a subfolder relative to your project
