What version of Python are you using?

You have lost the indentation, making your code invalid.

Also, you are probably getting a SyntaxError when you try to run your 
code. As always, please COPY AND PASTE (don't retype it from memory, or 
take a photo) the entire traceback, starting from the line 
"Traceback..." and ending with the error message.

That's two more syntax errors.

Dollar signs aren't used for Python variables.
