SyntaxError: invalid syntax


It looks like the tab i used to indent was converted to 4 spaces and then each space back to tabs which each got converted to 4 spaces.

This has nothing to do with tabs, the arrow is at the same position when
indenting with spaces.

An "asert" alone on a line is not invalid syntax.
A line starting with "asert not " is not necessarily invalid too since
e.g. "in x" could follow.
But as soon as you add "'", it's invalid, so the parsers shows the arrow
there.
