Hello,

Looks like there has been a format change in a recent version that has not propagated to documentation?

http://docs.python.org/tutorial/introduction.html#strings

has example

hello = "This is a rather long string containing\n\
several lines of text just as you would do in C.\n\
    Note that whitespace at the beginning of the line is\
 significant."

print hello

However, when I try to use that in a plain 3.2.3 install on a PC:
>>> hello = "This is a rather long string containing\n\
... several lines of text just as you would do in C.\n\
...     Note that whitespace at the beginning of the line is\
...  significant."
>>>
>>> print hello
  File "<stdin>", line 1
    print hello
              ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
>>>

...but this works...

>>> print (hello)
This is a rather long string containing
several lines of text just as you would do in C.
    Note that whitespace at the beginning of the line is significant.
>>>

Thank you.
