How to get to a new line in Python Shell?

python, python-idle

Solution

End lines with `;\`:

>>> x=3;\
... print x**5
243
>>>

Problem

I want to write the following two lines on the console: ``` x = 3 print x**5 ``` But when I type `x = 3`, I press enter, it then executes the assignment. How to get it to execute only after typing the second line?
