Put what you want to print out in brackets.

Print (xyz)

No worries. Just make sure to read your error messages in detail. Your one said something along the lines of 'put your print statement in apprentices'

Makes sense. To be honest someone told me that it literally gives you the solution in the " errors " I think sometimes I over think still being new to any form of programming language and if I used more common sense I would go a lot further.

Again hank you for your input and advice as it's golden being able to get advice and knowledge from people here.

Happy to have joined.

Try it with python3 and python 2.7 .
Most errors I run into that don't specify a missing package are just version problems.
