Either way is OK. It helps to quote a bit of the post to which you are
replying, for context. And please don't use all caps, it is
interpreted as shouting. And you seem to be a bit off in your

You can't just paste the examples verbatim from the tutorial. The
examples are showing you both the text that you type and the output of
the interpreter. In particular the >>> and ... are output and should
not be typed or pasted in.

That was a note to Rajeev, who included a lot of extraneous text in his reply.

Did you start at the beginning of the tutorial or are you starting
