Your question is not clear. Do you get a compiler error, program crash, what?

no but i want to use it inside the file ...@app.route, i can only type app.route. any ideas?

Sorry that is not an explanation. What do you mean by, "i can only type app.route."? What prevents you from typing anything else?

your question seems to be more hardware related than python + flask .. you need to get your keyboard sorted out if you cannot type the '@', as for nano, it's not a special command that I know of - its just 'shift' '2' .. not CTRL+ anything .. I guess if you're in a different 'locale' it could be somewhere else on the keyboard

I just cut and pasted your example code into a nano session on a Mac, I've never even used nano on it before, no issues

Hi Garth is the same with this sign # 'shift' '3'?

Well, if it were me, I would be looking at the locale & keyboard/language settings - eg English/US .. I don't know what Linux comes as standard on a Raspberry Pi3, but I would suggest looking at the 'man' pages and/or net for keyboard issues for your Linux variant

is the inability to access shift 1 ... etc a problem just in nano, or does it fail in the ssh/terminal window as well ? obviously if it works in ssh/terminal, it's a nano problem, if it doesn't work in ssh/terminal, it's a general issue ..
