You are using Python 2 syntax, but a Python 3 interpreter. So, either
download an earlier version of Python, or use a tutorial which covers
Python 3.

Rather unlucky timing, really - Python 3 is the first non-trivially
backward incompatible version for a very long time - at least a decade
and a half.
