You need to follow the correct documentation for the version of Python
you're using. The above is invalid syntax — in Python 3. (It was valid,
in Python 2.)

Please work through the Python tutorial for the version of Python you're
using <URL:http://docs.python.org/3.1/tutorial/>, running each exercise
and experimenting until you understand it before going to the next.

Good hunting, and keep at it!
