Hi, |
|
FYI: I noticed that the next line of code in the example also has an extra backslash. name = input('What is your name?\\n')...it should be this... name = input('What is your name?\n') |
| >>> print("Hello, I'm Python!") | ||
| <span class=\"output\">Hello, I'm Python!</span> |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Shall we put a unicode snake into the code (and HTML)?
| >>> print("Hello, I'm Python!") | |
| <span class=\"output\">Hello, I'm Python!</span> | |
| >>> print("Hello, I'm Python \N{SNAKE}") | |
| <span class=\"output\">Hello, I'm Python! 🐍</span> |

@ewdurbin apologies to ping directly, but I thought that this might be worth a quick fixup. It relates to a syntax error in one of the @eshaanmandal's fix should work as-is. I've added a suggestion that we could additionally use unicode in the example code (to match an existing comment), but I could move my suggestion into a separate follow-up pull request. (also a quick deployment note/reminder: as you discovered before, these examples are fixture data that are loaded into the db to take effect) |

🎉 nice - problem solved :)
(confirmed within a Python REPL session too) |

@ewdurbin ek, sorry - a nitpick about this: although the code syntax for this sample has been fixed on the homepage, some of HTML escaping may have gone a bit wonky, and that results in all of the text appearing in green (instead of a mixture of syntax highlighting colours, as with the other samples) Expected syntax highlighting in HTML
HTML snippet<span class="comment"># Python 3: Simple arithmetic</span>Appearance of code sample five
HTML snippet<span class="\"comment\""># Simple output (with Unicode)</span>(some kind of HTML-escaping issue?) |
|
That looks much better now - thank you!

Fixed issue #2190. Website home page, in the code example 5(Quick & Easy to Learn) has SyntaxError in first line at https://www.python.org/
