for loop in VS Code / python does not start
I am working with Python 3.7 in VS Code.
Since an hour it seems like I cannot start for loops anymore. for example if I try
for i in range(3):
print(i)
In my Terminal the following shows up:
>>> for i in range(3):
... print(i)
...
It changes only if i run a different line of code, then it gives me an error message. For me it looks like VS Code is waiting for further input in the loop.
for example if I interrupt it with
a = 1
and run that twice, it looks like:
>>> for i in range(3):
... print(i)
... a = 1
File "<stdin>", line 1
a = 1
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
>>> a = 1
when working in jupyter notebook for example, everything works fine, so I guess it has sth to do with VS Code.

When your using an interactive Python session, leave a blank line (just press return an extra time) after a multi-line command, to signal that the indented block is finished.

Press Enter after the loop is finished. Leave the final line blank and hit enter again. The loop should work fine.
