input

input(prompt) -> string

Returns a line from standard input (built-in).

prompt

REMARKS

* This is a built-in function.
* If the prompt argument is present, it is written to standard output without a trailing newline.
* The function then reads a line from input, converts it to a string (stripping a trailing newline), and returns that. When EOF is read, EOFError is raised. Example:
* If the readline module was loaded, then input() will use it to provide elaborate line editing and history features.
* For the Official documentation refer to python.org
