It helps to post the exact error message.

For instance:


  File "<stdin>", line 2
    print x
        ^
IndentationError: expected an indented block

came from this entered into the interactive interpreter:

>>> for x in xrange(1,10):
... print x

Because after a for statement, it expects an indentation. It's considered
standard to indent with four spaces.

My guess is there's something in your code that caused such an error. The
more information you give us, the better we are able to help you.
