I'm afraid your error report isn't completely clear. What do you mean "input single quote in print"? Do you mean this?

    print(')


You say IDLE "crashed". What do you mean? Do you mean the IDLE application put up an error message and then disappeared? If so, what was the error message?

If IDLE said something like:

    SyntaxError: EOL while scanning string literal

that's perfectly normal. That's because you haven't written a valid string, you need to quote the single quote: print("'").
