First, you shouldn't ask us to help you fix an error without telling us
what the error is! You should also tell us what version of Python and
what system (Windows? Linux? ...) , and anything more that can help us
understand what you did and what failed.
So this is just guesswork:
Spaces are important in Python. The body of a function **must** be
indented. If you do have the indents in your code, and they were just
lost in the process of cutting and pasting and emailing, the we really
do need more information.
def area(radius):
return math.pi * radius**2
def circumference(radius):
return 2 * math.pi * radius
