So, you reply to my advisory on how to report your problem by saying 
that your original post said what did happen. Your original post said:

"the code runs and hangs on the create file, and once i press Enter it 
then finishes and creates the file"

But it turns out that "It was a syntax error".

If it was a syntax error, them how did the code run and "hang on the 
create file"?

Don't try to sweep my suggestion (that you should describe your symptoms 
properly) under the carpet. It's a very important lesson to learn for 
people trying to report bugs/issues.
