What error did you encounter? Aside from the lack of line breaks, it looks
quite similar to what I get when I start up python:
Python 3.6.9 (default, Mar 10 2023, 16:46:00)
[GCC 8.4.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>>
Didn't you get the ">>> " prompt? Once you get it, it shows that the
Read, Evaluate, Print Loop (REPL) is ready for you to type some python
statements. For instance:
>>> x = 2**3
>>> print(x)
8
>>>
