About the Python 3 online compiler

Python's readable syntax makes it the most popular first language in the world, and this online Python 3 compiler removes the only real barrier left: installation. Write a script, press Run, read the output — including tracebacks, which are printed in full so you can practise reading them.

The runner supports the standard library, standard input, loops, comprehensions, functions, classes, dictionaries, file-free string handling, and exception handling. It is ideal for school and college assignments, interview prep, and working through the Python chapters on this site.

  • Running class assignments without installing Python at home
  • Practising list and dict comprehensions
  • Testing string formatting and slicing rules
  • Solving DSA problems that read from standard input

Python 3 sample programs you can run right now

Copy any snippet into the editor above and press Run. Each one is short on purpose — retype it from memory afterwards.

Comprehensions and dictionaries

marks = {"Aarav": 78, "Priya": 91, "Rohan": 55}

toppers = [name for name, m in marks.items() if m > 70]
print("Toppers:", toppers)
print("Average:", sum(marks.values()) / len(marks))

A comprehension replaces a four-line for loop with one readable expression.

Reading standard input

name = input("Your name: ")
n = int(input("A number: "))
for i in range(1, n + 1):
    print(f"{name} x {i} = {i}")

Type the input values in the stdin box under the editor before pressing Run — one value per line.

Common Python 3 errors and how to fix them

IndentationError: expected an indented block

Why: The line after a colon is not indented.

Fix: Indent the body by four spaces. Never mix tabs and spaces in one file.

TypeError: can only concatenate str (not "int") to str

Why: You joined a number to a string with +.

Fix: Wrap it: "Age: " + str(age), or use an f-string: f"Age: {age}".

NameError: name 'x' is not defined

Why: The variable is used before assignment or is misspelled.

Fix: Assign it earlier; remember Python is case sensitive.

Python 3 compiler FAQs

Which Python version does the compiler run?

Python 3, so f-strings, type hints and the modern standard library are all available.

Can I use input() here?

Yes. Put each value on its own line in the standard input box below the editor before running.
