[Tutor] Trouble executing an if statement with a string from an input

[Sylvia DeAguiar]

The code runs fine on python shell (from run module) but
when I try to execute the program from its file, it always prints out c, regardless
of the input. What is wrong? Thanks for any help :)

 

x = input("a, b, or c:")

if x == "a":

    print
("a")

elif x == "b":

    print
("b")

else:

    print ('c')
