name = input('Hey what is your name?: ')
print('nice to meet you ',name)
Whenever I try to run this I receive the following error :
"EOF when reading a line".
Could anyone help me with this?

While I consider this question bad form, I saw an answer which provided useful details downvoted. Which form is worse? – krysopath Sep 01 '17 at 21:04

Veritox, can you describe your execution environment? What OS are you using? Are you running Python from a command line or via a graphical interface? – Robᵩ Sep 01 '17 at 21:06

ofc, inability to provide an answer can be traced back to the questions form. but deletion of several answers that tried to adress it? – krysopath Sep 01 '17 at 21:07

Sorry for the lack of detail (first time here). Rob, I am using OS X, and on Atom Text Editor. – Veritox Sep 01 '17 at 21:13

Wait- atom? Are you using a run code plugin? In which case the mystery is solved! Atom run code cannot run input! – Octo Sep 01 '17 at 21:16

Ah, thank you Octo! I am no longer seeing the error, but I can't do the input. – Veritox Sep 01 '17 at 21:19

Just a guess: you need to run this in a terminal (it does work when run like this). I am thinking that your code does not have any chance to get any input (hence the End Of File warning).
