Alas, a thread can't check anything because it's blocked by I/O.

And, FWIW, if I compile the 2.7 version on the other machine where it works, in
both code and compiled forms, and then copy .exe back to the main machine, same
error message pops up, so must be something to do with machine's configuration,
etc.
Stay well

Hello,
I have a program where I read a line input from the keyboard.
If I remove this portion of code after reading the line, I get an error:
line = line.rstrip()
Why is that? Should stripping be always be used after reading an input in
Python?
Thanks.

Hello,
In the Python documentation, when opening the file in write mode, it
mentions the following:
*writing (truncating the file if it already exists)*
What is meant by "truncating" here? Is it simply overwriting the file
already existing?
Thanks.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply. I just wanted to understand the 'w' mode in Python.
So, when using it, it will overwrite any existing mode, right?
Thanks.

Not quite. It means
Hi,
in 'w' mode, if file does not exist it will create new one (if You have
permissions to write in specified location).
If file exist, it will 'truncate' it or like it is specified in
documentation "*(an existing file with the same name will be erased)*".

How about:

Readability counts.
If the implementation is hard to explain, it's a bad idea.
