I am an older newbie teaching myself Python programming. I copied the code #
Emonstrates escape sequences. This exercise is on page 22 of the Phthon
Programming for the Absolute Beginner by Michael Dawson. I have copied the code
verbatim below.
# Sound the system bell
print "\a"
print "\t\t\tFancy Credits"
print "\t\t\t \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\"
print "\t\t\t\tby
print "\t\t\tMichael Dawson
print "\t\t\t \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\"
print "\nSpecial thanks goes out to:"
print "My hair stylist. Henry \'The Great\', who never says \"can\'t\"."
raw_input ("\n\nPress the enter key to exit.")
My problem is I hear no system bell; the enter doesn't respond by quitting the
program; The problem with the program code the enter key hasn't worked in
earlier programs.
I appreciate any advice I may recieve with this coding glitch.
Sincerely,
Randy_______________________________________________
