So now you know that copying and pasting code into a shell when filename completion is enabled in that shell DOES NOT WORK. Even if filename completion is disabled, pasting multi-line code or code containing tab characters might not do what you expect depending on what options are enabled in your shell.
When sample code is suggested for you in this forum, the proper way to handle it is to copy into a file and then tell your shell to execute that file. If you use an editor to copy code into a file, be sure that auto-indentation is turned off and that your editor is set to use UNIX text file format (with each line terminated by a <newline> character; not DOS format with <carriage-return><line-feed> character pairs as line terminators).
