Python Multi-Line code?

Question

How do I type in multiple lines of code in the Python console without it just executing the commands prematurely? I’m new to all of this and I’ve so far tried a ;\ method that didn’t work

Answer 1

You are supposed to store code in a file, then run it.

Shell's rather for testing something on the fly.

Answer 2

How do I write the code in a file then? im sorry i sound like a noob, i just want the chance to play around with it a little bit to get used to it
