Sorry for this newbie question:
I installed Python v3.6.1 on win 7. Afterwards I tried to execute the following simple python script from webpage http://www.pythonforbeginners.com/code-s...me-script/:
Python Code:
from datetime import datetime
now = datetime.now()
mm = str(now.month)
dd = str(now.day)
yyyy = str(now.year)
hour = str(now.hour)
mi = str(now.minute)
ss = str(now.second)
print mm + "/" + dd + "/" + yyyy + " " + hour + ":" + mi + ":" + ss
When executing
D:\tools\python\python.exe dateParser.py
it yields a syntax error:
File "dateParser.py", line 17
print mm + "/" + dd + "/" + yyyy + " " + hour + ":" + mi + ":" + ss
^
SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print'
Whats wrong?
Thank you
Peter
