EOFError: EOF when reading a line, can't figure out why

I've been trying to make a python Among Us game (kinda I guess) but this error has been really annoying. Here is my code:

import random
print("Python Among Us")
print()
role = ["Crewmate", "Crewmate" , "Crewmate", "Crewmate", "Crewmate", "Crewmate", "Crewmate", "Crewmate", "Crewmate", "Impostor"]
roleconfirmed = random.choice(role)
print("You are a", roleconfirmed, "!")
if roleconfirmed == ("Crewmate"):
    firstdestination = input("Where would you like to go? ")

Here is the exact error in the console:

Python Among Us

You are a Crewmate !
Where would you like to go? Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "main.py", line 8, in <module>
    firstdestination = input("Where would you like to go? ")
EOFError: EOF when reading a line

Any ideas why this error still persists?

I think you are using an online IDE, or giving an empty input file to read input from.

I was able to re-generate your exception, when i created an empty file empty.txt and passed that as argument while running above code segment.

$ python3 main.py < empty.txt
Python Among Us

You are a Crewmate !
Where would you like to go? Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/vishvanath/Desktop/test/main.py", line 8, in <module>
    firstdestination = input("Where would you like to go? ")
EOFError: EOF when reading a line

Here, main.py contains code segment provided in question and empty.txt is just an empty file.

So error occurs, because your program is expecting an input, but there is none.
