Hi folks.
I started learning python about a week ago and I found a strange problem.
please look at this code:

>>> a = 1
>>> b = 2
>>> if a > b:
print "a > b"
elif a < b:

SyntaxError: invalid syntax
>>> 

As the source for the error he points to the "elif". Is this problem somehow
connected with IDLE or did i just make a misstake? i did it exactly like in
the tutorial and I got no idea why it does not work.
Would be very nice if someone could help me,
Markus
