Hi Joshua,

I actually managed to find a certain block like this:

 def phi_m(x, m):
...   rtn = []
...   for n2 in range(0, len(x) * m - 2:
...     n = n2 / m
...     r = n2 - n * m
...     rtn.append(m * x[n] + r * (x[n + 1] - x[n]))
...     print 'n2 =', n2, ': n =', n, ' r =' , r, ' rtn =', rtn
...   rtn 

However, I am getting the error "expected an indented block" on line two.  Any idea why?
