[Tutor] Unable to run a simple Hello.py in WinXP

[Sivapathasuntha Aruliah]

Hi Yashwin
When I run the hello.py from it's location by double clicking it shows an 
error with the pop up window C:\Python31\python.exe is not a valid win32 
application.
When I give the command from IDLE then it says SyntaxError: invalid syntax 
Which can be seen from Python Shell. Please analyse.

Hi Siva

This looks more of issue with the python installation on your PC.

Could be a bad installation, in which case I would suggest re-installation 
of python.
Also it could be something to do with permission on your PC.

Also you say that you were successful in running the script on python 
shell.
Could you please tell us do you mean IDLE or the python command prompt?In 
either case please tell us how do you to initiate the shell on your 
machine.

Regards
Yashwin Kanchan

Hi 
If possible please run the following two lines after saving it as a py 
file on WINXP and check whether it runs smooythly. When I run I  get 
error. I use Python 3.1.2 (r312:79149, Mar 21 2010, 00:41:52) [MSC v.1500 
32 bit (Intel)] on win32 
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license()" for more information. However 
when I give the following command on Python shell print("Hello", "World!") 
it neately prints Hello World! 

#! /usr/bin/env python3 

print("Hello", "World!")
