Python Shell 3.9.0 - Issue with indentation
#6
Stop posting links. Paste your code directly into your post and surround it with python tags. Like this:
for i in [12, 16, 17, 24, 29]:
    if i % 2 == 1: 
       break
    print(i)
print("done")
You should not be typing programs in the shell. Type programs in a file and run the file. If you have to type code in the shell you need to add empty lines at the end of a compound statement so Python knows when it reached the end of a statement
for i in [12, 16, 17, 24, 29]:
    if i % 2 == 1: 
       break
    print(i)

print("done")
Also note that you cannot cut and paste multiple statements in the shell. The shell is for one statement at a time. This is one statement:
for i in [12, 16, 17, 24, 29]:
    if i % 2 == 1: 
       break
    print(i)
And this is another.
print("done")
You need to press the enter key to execute the first statement before you start entering the second.
