Hello! I'm having an issue with Idle, perhaps someone could help me resolve it? I have everything installed properly, and Idle runs fine, however when I try to run more than one line of code, it only runs the first line. For example, if I try to run the first problem set code, Idle will only execute the first line of code (ie, dob = raw_input ('What is your date of birth?'), but wont run any of the subsequent lines of code. Any idea on how to fix this issue? Thanks everyone!

Question

anonymous · Answer

you have to open a "new window" under file and enter the code in there

anonymous · Answer

What you;re typing into is the shell that runs the code. A new window will actually store the code until you run it.

Right, now how do I run the code after it has been pasted in a "new window"?

anonymous · Answer

at the top of the new window is a "Run" menu. You can also hit "F5"

anonymous · Answer

Ok, I see you're a Mac user, so when the new window is the active window, the menu bar will have the run option.

Try typing - print "hello" and then selecting Run from the menu.
