Problem description:
When using the Python interpreter in Replit, a bug has been observed.
The issue occurs when typing user input multiple times; it automatically inserts additional characters.
Expected behavior:
User input in the interpreter should be accurately processed without adding unintended characters.
Actual behavior:
The platform adds extra characters when entering user input, which disrupts the intended functionality.
Steps to reproduce:
Open a Python interpreter in Replit.
Type user input more than one alphanumeric character.
Observe that additional characters are automatically inserted.

Let me explain this
Suppose i type a code in python interpreter
n=input()
print(n)
I run this code
And type my user input. for example i type “hello”
But it’s automatically take some character “hehehello”
Are you using Gboard by chance? It conflicts with Replit a lot for me.
Guys it’s a bug. It’s not fault an Gboard. And I am not using Gboard. I am currently using SwiftKey keyboard
I can consistently reproduce this or similar issues while using gboard, so I suspect it’s part of the autocorrect or something. Also, sometimes inputs don’t go the the console at all and I have to double press a key.
@chellanhari: If your keyboard has autocorrect/spellcheck, could you see if this issue occurs with autocorrect/spellcheck disabled?
