I'm not much of a BASIC-guy and you're much better of reading the
online tutorials, but...

startup the python interpreter and then:

    >>> while 1:
    ...     print "Hello World"
    ...
    Hello World
    Hello World
    Hello World
    Traceback (innermost last):
      File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
    KeyboardInterrupt
    
[[ The KeyboardInterrupt is provoked by pressing
   the control-key and the C-key simultaniously. ]]

or add a ',' to the print statement, like:

    >>> while 1:
    ...     print "Hello World"
    ...
    Hello World Hello World Hello World Hello World Hello World Hello World
    Traceback (innermost last):
      File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
    KeyboardInterrupt
