Hi, I'm a beginner in python using Kdev on linux. I tried to execute this code:

Code: Select all

nm= input('Enter your name:')
print('Welcome', nm)


Normally it should prompt something asking me the name and so on but nothing comes up:

OMG nobody here? I've been stuck with this problem for a few days I guess. Help pleaseeeeeee

Hello,
unfortunately I think there is no straight-forward solution, as the "Run" view is output only. But you can just make the script run in external terminal, then it will work. Go into your Launch configuration, and fill the "Script Interpreter" (where now you have "Python3" filled) like this:

konsole --noclose --workdir /home/sajad/projects/Python -e python3

...of course if you have different Terminal emulator that Konsole, then you need to adjust it appropriately, but it should give you an idea

KDevelop's output view does not support input. It's something a lot of beginners trip upon, but outside of programming tutorials, the amount of applications which need interactive terminal input is really tiny. That's why it is not implemented.

I would recommend to just do this part of your tutorial without using KDevelop's "Run" feature; instead open a terminal emulator and type "python whatever.py".
