raw_input

[jedi]

Should look more like this:

>>> name = raw_input("Enter your name:")
Enter your name: jedi
>>> print name
 jedi
>>>

you needed to assign the raw_input to a variable to print it out.  another
way you could have dones is:

>>> print raw_input("Enter your name:")
Enter your name:jedi
jedi
>>>

but I'm not sure if looks better.
