Question

  File "C:\Users\Dk\Desktop\New folder\DDos.py", line 18, in <module>
    host=raw_input(":" )
NameError: name 'raw_input' is not defined

I get this error when I run this code:

print ("DDoS mode loaded")
print ("python script ")
host=raw_input(":" )
port=input(":" )

If you are using Python3 replace `raw_input()` with `input()` — techytushar, Dec 27 '20 at 07:49
Just be warned that if the script is in Python 2 there are probably many other things in it that are not compatible with Python 3. See if you Can find a more up-to date version. I can not recommend that you switch to using Python 2. It has been obsolete for years and reached end-of-life a year ago, so it is no longer supported. — BoarGules, Dec 27 '20 at 08:00
I'd not trust that script especially if you cannot understand the code. Best to just delete it. — , Dec 27 '20 at 08:49

raw_input in Python 2.x is replaced by input in Python 3.x.

Try using input instead of raw_input.

If you regularly work with Python 2.x, you might want to look into the Python 2 and 3 compatiblity library named six. This will help you develop code that has lesser compatibility issues. Official docs for six
