The code snippet works fine. Please check that the code you send is exactly the same as the code you are actually trying to run. Do not just retype the code from memory, copy and paste it. Also, please copy and paste the full traceback that you get, not just the final error message. Everything from the first "Traceback" line to the end. Finally, you should tell us what version of Python you are running, on what operating system (Linux, Mac OS, Windows XP, Windows 10, Android, something else), and whether you are using the standard Python interactive interpreter or something else (IDLE, iPython, Anaconda, PyCharm, etc.). -- Steve _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
