Hi,
I am learning Python and do not have programming experience.
I was following an exercise from
http://learnpythonthehardway.org/book/ex2.html
and made a mistake in entry :
*Print"I like typing this."*
and got the following error message:
*In [2]: Print"I like typing this."*
*------------------------------------------------------------*
* File "<ipython console>", line 1*
* Print"I like typing this."*
* ^*
*SyntaxError: invalid syntax*
I feel the error is in Capital P in print .
Correct. (I'm assuming that you're using Python 2; Python 3 is a little
different.)
However the error indicated with "*^*"
hints at quote at the end of the line.
*Can any one please help me understand this.*
It will tell you approximately where the error is, but, as in this
example, the actual error may be a little earlier.
It tries to be helpful, but remember that it isn't intelligent! :-)
