Congratulations; hopefully you'll have a lot of fun. Python is a great
language to be your first.

As you'll read in the above URL on "How To Ask Questions The Smart Way",
you'll need to tell us a litle more about what's going on for someone to
be able to help you. Please read the document for more guidelines.

You must be doing something wrong then :-)

Check the documentation:

Assuming you're using windows:

Take your lines of code and put them into their own file with a .py
extention (ie MyProgram.py).

Then go to the command line and into the directory where MyProgram.py
resides and type "python MyProgram.py". This will run your program
containing as many lines of code as you like.
