Python: error when using the input() function

I was writing a basic guessing game and when I tried to take user input I was
getting the following:

Code:

guess = input()
d

Error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "", line 1, in 
  File "", line 1, in 
NameError: name 'd' is not defined

The problem is actually with the version of Python that I was using. If you
are using Python 2.x, you need to use the raw_input() function. And with 3.x
you can use the input() function.
