[Tutor] Brand new to python have simple problem

[mickth]

I'm brand new to python and every time i start to learn it i get the same
problem and end up giving up and moving on to another language.

the print statement doesn't work in either the comand line or IDLE i get
this in IDLE:
SyntaxError: invalid syntax (<pyshell#0>, line 1)

and just SyntaxError: invalid syntax in the command line.

Even doing the hello world or doing simple sums. If I type "hello, world" i
get the right outcome but print "Hello world" i get the error. When i type
print it's purple in IDLE if that means anything.

I've tried reinstalling python and tried an earlier version with same
results. i'm running windows vista home prem 32bit
  
I know i may seem an imbecile for posting such a simple thing but i'm
determined to learn it this time i've already learnt vb and C and want to
broaden out!

Thanks for any help
