Here ya go!
Can't do what you want as this is a programmatic error from interrupter.
Only a screen shot will tell you the full situation. I have class example
which is to be used for our homework, and I copied it into IDLE and it won't
work, with error below. I've tried several ways to work around this
Thanks
Frank

So why is there an X there? As the compiler tells you, that's a syntax
error. The return statement starts with an 'r'
Please use only text editors to edit code, and use copy/paste to copy the
actual source to your message, while composing the message in text mode. We
cannot tell who has mangled the code, but only how it happens to look after
the mangling is finished. If it ever goes through a word processor, or
through an html message (which your is), then all bets are off.
Another thing. Copy/paste the actual error message, including the
traceback. Don't summarize it, or paraphrase it.
