Well, that's definitely not what the code would be producing, nor does
it seem to be related to what the example claims to be doing...
Perhaps instead of

print(
           """
           """
       )

which is a very strange idiom (though valid), you should write:

print(
           """
 ___    __       __
 |    |    |    |     |    |
 |    |__|    |     |    |
 |    __     |      |    |
 |    |    |    |     |    |
 |__|    |__|     |__|
          """
       )

or perhaps you are looking at one example and the explanation of another?
