You tell us. You want to be a programmer, *you* need to do the 
programming, and not just keep asking others to solve every single bug. 
You have been given all the clues to solve this problem. Start by 
checking what the type of 'page' is, then decide what it ought to be.

Hint: you can use

"print(type(page), file=open('path/to/some/file', 'w'))" 

to see the type of the variable 'page' without displaying it on your 
website.

And what result does form.getvalue return?

What is its type? Is it a list, a tuple, a dict, a bytes object, a float, 
a str object, something else? DON'T GUESS, and don't assume, find out for 
sure, by inspecting the result.

What do you think you need to change it to? Pick one:


1) bytes
2) an integer
3) a string
4) a list of floats
5) something else
