When you see "treehouse:~/workspace$", that is the system prompt. If you want to work with Python, type "Python" (without the quotes) and hit the "Enter" key. Then you should see the Python prompt (">>>").

Command entered into the console (lower pane) are processed immediately, so you can't "go back". So you might prefer developing with the editor (upper pane) which will allow you to make all the changes you like between test runs.

To get more familiar with using the environment, you may want to take the Using Treehouse Workspaces course.

If you make a mistake on the last line you wrote in the console, press the up arrow key to get the line back, and then you can correct the mistake. hopefully this helps!
