Hi, You mentioned it was from following a tutorial. In that case also always check whether your line reads exactly the same as is stated in the tutorial. Besides, indicate which tutorial, as there are many, and if you find that it was an error in the tutorial rather than your typo, also report that to the author of the tutorial (which, in any case, is likely to be subscribed to the user list).
