Question

Hi, just made my first assignment #0 and I would appreciate if someone could give me a feedback to see if is correct and also if there is another ways to write it better ?
lastn = input("Enter last name :" )
print(lastn)
firstn = input("Enter first name:")
print (firstn)
print (firstn +lastn)

Answer 1

Ups !! I forgot to mention that I'm using Python 3.2.2

Answer 2

looks good

Answer 3

perfect though it will look better if you will leave space after colon

Answer 4

my first and last name didn't have a space so i had
print (firstn+" "+lastn)
was there an easier way to add the space?

Answer 5

oh yeah the space after the colon

Answer 6

You may wanna use print (firstn+' '+lastn) for clarity

Answer 7

or you could use print firstn,lastn here comma serves as a space

Answer 8

ok, please excuse my complete lack of experience here but how do you type all this code without having each line run every time you hit enter? In other words, I'll get the first line lastn = raw_input ('enter your last name: ') and then I hit enter and I feel like that isn't what I should be doing. Any thoughts?

Answer 9

You should write the code in a separate py file and then run it at once.

Answer 10

this is the property of raw_input() to go to a next line of code you have to press Enter.So everything is allright.And I think you are typing in an interpreter, you just have press Ctrl+N simultaneously two keys and a new window where you can type your code will pop up.To run your code press F5.

Thanks for bearing with a newcomer, I especially appreciate the keystroke tips.
