i am new to learning jython...
i just tried compiling a small piece of code that is given below: def fac(x) if x<=1:return 1 return x*fac(x-1) on C:\Program Files\jython\temp>jythonc factor.py it showed the following error: processing factor Traceback (innermost last): File "C:\Program Files\jython\Tools\jythonc\jythonc.py", line 5, in ? File "C:\Program Files\jython\Tools\jythonc\main.py", line 298, in main File "C:\Program Files\jython\Tools\jythonc\main.py", line 219, in doCompile File "C:\Program Files\jython\Tools\jythonc\compile.py", line 195, in compilef ile File "C:\Program Files\jython\Tools\jythonc\compile.py", line 209, in compile File "C:\Program Files\jython\Tools\jythonc\SrcGenCompiler.py", line 1079, in execstring File "<string>", line 1 def fac(x) ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax What may have gone wrong? I am totally clueless as it is not mentioned in any of the books that I tried. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
