title: Invalid Syntax error when running python from inside Visual Studio Code
body: <p>i have a python file with the following content saved on my machine:</p>
  
  <pre><code>types_of_people = 10
  x = f"There are {types_of_people} types of people"
  
  binary = "binary"
  do_not = "don't"
  y = f"Those who know {binary} and those who {do_not}."
  
  print(x)
  print(y)
  
  print(f"i said: {x}")
  print(f"I also said: '{y}'")
  
  hilarious = False
  joke_evaluation = "Isn't that joke so funny?! {}"
  
  print(joke_evaluation.format(hilarious))
  w = "This is the left side of ..."
  e = "a string with a right side."
  
  print(w + e)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When i open this file with Python 3.7 from within Visual Studio Code i get the following error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>/usr/local/opt/python/bin/python3.7 /Users/andree/Desktop/test.py
    File "&lt;stdin&gt;", line 1
      /usr/local/opt/python/bin/python3.7 /Users/andree/Desktop/test.py
      ^
  SyntaxError: invalid syntax
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>In the following screenshot you can see the command i use to run the file and also which python extension i use.</p>

  <p>But running the file from within my terminal with <code>python3 test.py</code> works just fine.</p>
  
  <p>Does anyone know what the problem is when running it from within VS Code?</p>
