How to use sys.stdin.read() on Mac

I found this python3 code in a tutorial case. I don't understand how the sys.stdin.read() works on a mac. The input command starts but I cannot close it. If I press ctrl + D, apparently nothing happens. If I press cmd + D, I get exit code 0.

import sys

def get_fibonacci_last_digit_naive(n):
    if n <= 1:
        return n

    previous = 0
    current  = 1

    for _ in range(n - 1):
        previous, current = current, previous + current

    return current % 10

if __name__ == '__main__':
    input = sys.stdin.read()
    n = int(input)
    print(get_fibonacci_last_digit_naive(n))

I assume you understand how sys.stdin.read() itself works.

On a Mac, the CMD key is the equivalent of the Ctrl key on a Windows PC. That is why Mac expects the user to press CMD + D to finish their entry.
