For those who have just joined us, "that" is using raw_input() instead of
input().

I don't know why input() is the equivalent of eval(raw_input(prompt)), but
it is. Presumably Guido thought it was a good idea at the time. I recall
hearing somewhere that Guido is planning to rename raw_input() to input()
some time in Python 3.
