input EOF error

Question

x=int(input())
y=int(input())
z=[[0 for row in range(0,x)] for col in range(0,y)]
for i in range (x):
for j in range (y):
z[i][j]=input()
for i in range (x):
for j in range (y):
print(z[i][j],end=' ')

print("\n")

this was my original code to accept the matrix from user and to print back the matrix in order and i was encountered with an error

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "..\Playground\", line 6, in <module>
z[i][j]=input()
EOFError: EOF when reading a line

Answer 1

It should work alright outside SoloLearn. The error is most likely caused by the Code Playground's way of accepting input -- you have to enter all expected input at once, separating it with a newline. Otherwise, the code will fail as it expects more input than you have provided.

Try the following input:
1
1
5

It should then print out 5, as it will create a 1x1 matrix and expect just one more input.
