Attached is the source code which accompanies the book and lessons. When
I type it in I do not get the same result. I do not get the block
lettering, or am I supposed to?

Hello,
I am at the very beginning of learning Python. If anyone is familiar
with Michael Dawson's book: "Python Programming for the Absolute
Beginner" The following script (according to the book) should create
"block lettering" created by dashes and vertical lines. If I could
show a picture of it I would.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Below I have copied and pasted what appears after running the
accompanied source code. When I type it manually, I cant get it to work.
# Game Over - Version 2
# Demonstrates the use of quotes in strings
print("Program 'Peter Stein' 2.0")
print("Same", "message", "as before")
print("Just",
"a bit",
"smaller")
print("Here", end=" ")
print("it is...")
print(
"""
