hello community,i am a newbie to python and program in general.
the script below works in python 2.7.3 on windows but not in the python 2.7.3

(print(x)
***i used fp for file pointer.I am using windows 7 and it works
Are you sure this is the *exact* same code you use on Windows 7? Because
it won't read the file, it will fail with a SyntaxError due to the
missing close bracket after the print.
This is Python 2.7.3, not 3.x. The error is due to a ( in front of the
print statement.
And please call () parends and [] brackets, and{} braces. Saves a lot of
confusion.
