Python Python Basics (2015) Python for Beginners Second Quiz

quiz question: "To leave the Python shell"

In the video, it is stated that you can use end() or quit(). But end() is not accepted as an answer to the question.

Why is this?

I believe the video mentioned quit() and exit() as the two ways to leave the python shell.

You can also use Ctrl-d

Right, I'm just wondering why the quiz won't accept a correct answer.

Perhaps you misread my answer. end() is not defined and is different from exit()
