Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> help(input)
Help on built-in function input in module __builtin__:
input(...)
input([prompt]) -> value
Equivalent to eval(raw_input(prompt)).
>>> help(raw_input)
Help on built-in function raw_input in module __builtin__:
raw_input(...)
raw_input([prompt]) -> string
Read a string from standard input. The trailing newline is stripped.
If the user hits EOF (Unix: Ctl-D, Windows: Ctl-Z+Return), raise
EOFError.
On Unix, GNU readline is used if enabled. The prompt string, if given,
is printed without a trailing newline before reading.

Where the hell did you get the idea of stacking input on a raw_input in
the first place?
