How to move to new line in shell (when defining functions?)

I want to know what you clicked on your keyboard to be able to define and tab in a new line in the shell. Thanks!

well most of the time you can do that using this one \, example:

print("hello " + variable + "again hello! " + variable2 +\
         "see ? " + variable3)

and you can also do this while defining long functions like:

def function(var1, var2, var3\
                     var4, var5, var 6):
   print("see?")

dont forget that you can also move to another line while defining function automatically after typing : because this tells to python to move to a next line cause you are going to write something inside that

i hope this helps you and i hope that u mean this lol
