problems in a python script

[pythonhda]

Whenever I get an syntax error after editing a file from someone else, it's usually because they used another indenting scheme than I do.

For example, I use spaces for indenting and some people use tabs. Check to see what indenting method they're using and make sure you use the same.

If you copied the code straight from the browser, make sure you don't have any extra spaces/tabs at the beginning of the line and make sure you use a good (programmer's) text editor to save your files.
