it should be name = input("Enter your name: ") print ("Hallo " + name + ", welcome to 'the Invisible House.'")

OK in that case I don't believe you do need a semicolon at the end of your statements. However, could someone more knowledgeable about python confirm that.

@god usopp, I am not saying that it is. I am asking whether python statement SHOULD end in a ; to mark the end of the statement like in Java. I have reached the conclusion that they don't.

What language is this in? Should there be a ";" at the end of statements ?

@josh mizzi it's not a semicolon it's a period (.) and then single quote closing (').

@josh mizzi As I've said before, it's not a semicolon it's a period (.) and a single quote closing ('). It just looks like a semicolon because they are right after each other '. or .' vs ;
