Hi Madeleine,


Unlike English class, you're not penalized for copying-and-pasting
errors for diagnostic, bug tracking purposes.  I can tell that you've
paraphrased the error in some way because what you report has a
spelling mistake that's not present anywhere in the Python source
tree.

What you've done is somewhat akin to what happened to the poor Ecce
Homo painting:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecce_Homo_(El%C3%ADas_Garc%C3%ADa_Mart%C3%ADnez)

in paraphrasing a perfectly good error message.  :P


Please include the exact error message.  When you do so,
copy-and-paste is your friend.  When you see the error message, please
copy and paste the exact error text.  It helps to copy the entire
error context if it's not too large.  Show the program run.


Provide more precise information, and that will help folks here give
you good help.  Good luck!
