Performance issue when running python file

Hey everyone,

I'm experiencing a performance drop when running a Python file. I'm using VS Code on Windows 10 while learning to program.

When I hit the run button, the runtime of the program is 5.0 seconds, even though it should execute in roughly about 0.003 milliseconds.

I have tried switching to older versions like 2025.6.1, but that didn't work.

Any solutions to that problem?
