[Tutor] why does this fail

[Roelof Wobben]

Hello Alan,

 

Oops, then I have a problem.

Im following this book : http://openbookproject.net/thinkcs/python/english2e/ which is the first link  in the beginners tutorial page.

And it's talking about the string modules.

Thats OK, I only replied because what you said could genuinely have been 
a mistake because some old tutorials still refer to the string module amnd 
its functions. Because other begineers may read the post too it was 
important to make the distinction.

Oke,
 
That's what I ment.
Apolize for the bad English. 
It's not the language I often use.
