Syntax error in Hello World

[tim.sho...@gmail.com]

I have just started, just installed python following the google tutorial. When I run the hello world program I get

    File "hello.py", line 29
        print 'Hello', name

SyntaxError: invalid syntax

What am I doing wrong?

The problem may be about indentation on this or the previous line. Please, send the full code to get a better analysis.

This has supposedly something to do with your python version, the tutorial is for Python 2.5 or 2.7 I guess and you're using Python 3.3 probably. If that is the case, following would work

>name="Tim"

>print ("Hello "+ name)

Hello Tim

okay This worked on my console

 

In [21]: name='Tim'

In [22]: name

Out[22]: 'Tim'

In [23]: print 'Hello '+name

Hello Tim

Then triple check the indentation on the file, because it's the most likely explanation.

I'm facing the same problem. Did you resolve your code! If so, what changes did you make..

Please attach the screenshot of the error. It will help to understand the exact problem. 

Also if possible, let us know the variable declaration you have used.
