Sort of, yes, but since you meanwhile redeclared the function: def print_time(): print_time() to be recursive and then you ran that recursive function it recursed until it ran out of resources. However, > Running the code in a shell , it is displaying the time and now also the > date . That would prove that the code itself is not the reason why it hangs where you think it hangs. I suggest sprinkling print statements about the initial code and see what it prints to the console to find out where (and whether) it actually hangs.
