Hi Antonia, Python 3 is a different language than Python 2. It looks like the codeacademy materials use Python 2, so you should probably do the same on your local system. By the way, next time you ask a question where something goes wrong, also show us what went wrong. Be descriptive! When you learn to program, you'll find that programs break for all sorts of crazy pedantic reasons. Normally, a Python program will explain *why* it broke. In your specific situation, it should have said something that points to one of the lines of your program, with a particular error message. When you see this and ask for help, copy and paste the error message. It will help. Good luck to you! _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
