Always state your operating system! Python is simply an interpreter, not a graphical application, and is normally run from the command prompt. Your program is in fact running, but after it finishes, the window goes away, as it does for all console programs. If you run it from a command prompt you will see the complete output from your program. Please read the link that DL Neil helpfully provided to get you up and running on Windows. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
