[Tutor] Calling Modules in ActiveState 2.4

For exit:
You need to put an argument (more input) :
import sys
sys.exit(0)
The argument of exit is the return value of your script (0 = okay, other 
= problem).
sys.path is an attribute (of type list) of sys not a function.
So don't put () after path.
I hope it will help.
