Hi, I've just installed Python v3.1.2 onto Windows Vista. I started IDLE and typed help() which suggested I look at http://docs.python.org/tutorial/ Section 2.1.2. Interactive Mode suggested the following code: the_world_is_flat = 1if the_world_is_flat: print "Be careful not to fall off!" The line print "Be careful not to fall off!" generates SyntaxError: invalid syntax The Python v3.1.2 documentation on Windows which was installed as a Windows help file gives a slightly different Section 2.1.2. Interactive Mode suggestion: the_world_is_flat = 1if the_world_is_flat: print ("Be careful not to fall off!") This code works. The online documentation needs to change to show working code (or if appropriate indicate that the code is version specific). -- Regards, *Ian Sweeney* Head of IT * ------------------------------ * LLJ Property LLC PO Box 107729 Abu Dhabi UAE Tel: +44 7941 045102 Email: ian.sweeney@lljproperty.com* *www.lljproperty.com DISCLAIMER: The information contained in this mail is for the intended addressee only, if you have received this mail by mistake, please forward it to admin@lljproperty.com.
