I get an error only if I use the entirety of it as a program. Is that
what you're doing, perhaps?
It's not actually a program, but the output from an interactive session.
You start IDLE (I'm assuming that what you're using) and it prints:
Python 3.10.1 (tags/v3.10.1:2cd268a, Dec 6 2021, 19:10:37) [MSC
v.1929 64
bit (AMD64)] on win32
and then shows a prompt.
At the prompt you type:
print("Hello World")
and it print the response:
Hello World
and so on.
