python string input eof

My current code reads user input until line-break. But I am trying to change that to a format, where the user can write input until strg+d to end his input.

I currently do it like this:

input = raw_input ("Input: ")

But how can I change that to an EOF-Ready version?

Answer

In Python 3 you can iterate over the lines of standard input, the loop will stop when EOF is reached:

from sys import stdin

for line in stdin:
  print(line, end='')

line includes the trailing \n character
