Hey Kenisha, Mosh is explaining in the ongoing video what you need to do. You need to change python -u into python3 -u. He is explaining pretty well where to update this in the settings.json file. I hope this helps 🙂

This is applicable in case of mac but not windows if I am right. I am also facing the same issue with windows. I was able to run it with Ctrl+Alt+n for the first time. when I tried to execute it second time with an updated piece of code, it is not working, I am getting “ṇ” when I entered "Ctrl+Alt+n. Please help me in this regard.  
Thanks a lot in advance!!
