line command apends @ automatically

I've just started learning autocad and am using the line command. Everytime I had a new set of line coordinates the @ is automatically added. How can I turn this feature off? Thanks in advance,

Welcome to the Autodesk Forums

 

When Dynamic Input is turned on (and it is by default) AutoCAD defaults to Relative coordinates (automatically adds the @ symbol)  You can avoid defaulting to Relative coords by 1) Disabling Dynamic Input, or 2) Change the Dynamic Input mode to "Absolute"  You can of course over-ride either mode by manually adding the # or @ symbol for Absolute or Relative coords respectively.

Nestly gave a response that was functionally different from yours.  You found the dynamic input toggle.  The dynamic input settings (available on right click of the DYN button) are a way you can keep dynamic input on but have point input the way you want it.
