Yesterday I downloaded and installed Python 3.1 and working through some

a = raw_input("Enter a number" )
NameError: name 'raw_input' is not defined>>>a = raw_input("Enter a number

What am I doing wrong?
Python 3 changed the name of raw_input() to input() (and the old input() method
that evaluates the string was simply thrown out as being redundant and unsafe).
