Why is giving me an error if I am using the \n in the way that was taught?

print("This is how you make a new line, just follow the procedure \n and maybe you will succeed.")

Thank you, Ace and Zemiak for your assistance. What I did was to rewrite the code in the following way: I type 'print' and then the parenthesis, then I type the "" (of course the playground put it double () and "" automatically) then I just keep typing the code and put the /n in the place that I wanted without pressing enter or nothing it changes the lines automatically, then I ran the code without errors, maybe that's what we should do in order to avoid that SyntaxError just keep entering the code and then finish when we are done.
