Why does it say “Invalid Syntax” When I try to print something in Python? [duplicate]



This question already has an answer here:



When I try to run my Python code in Idle (on a Mac), is says 'invalid syntax' On my quotation marks. Does anyone know why?


from goto import goto, label
import random

tries = 0
r = int(100 * random.random()) + 1
label .guess

guess = int(raw_input("Please guess the number between 1 - 100: "))
if guess == r:
tries += 1
print "You are correct! It took you " + str(tries) + " tries!"

if guess > r:
print"Too high... Try again"
tries += 1
goto .guess

if guess < r:
print"Too low... Try again."
tries += 1
goto .guess
exit



Does any one know why this might not work? The line that has an error is this one:


print "You are correct! It took you " + str(tries) + " tries!"



It is the second quotation mark.



This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If those answers do not fully address your question, please ask a new question.





Which Python version are you running? If it is Python 3, print is a function and entails parentheses.

Try:


print("You are correct! It took you " + str(tries) + " tries!")



In Python 3 and above, print statements are function calls, that is the input needs to be in parentheses. See e.g. http://sebastianraschka.com/Articles/2014_python_2_3_key_diff.html#the-print-function

Export result set on Dbeaver to CSV

Export result set on Dbeaver to CSV Normally I use Dbeaver for windows and always export my result set like this: run my query --> select the result --> export the result set --> select export to clipboard --> done This step by step puts my result set in my clipboard and I can paste it wherever I want to work with it. The problem is that now I am using dbeaver for mac and this guide is not working. I can go on until the moment that I select my result set like in the image below: exporting data set But once I go further in the process, in the last step I get: no query Note that in "source" it was suppose to show the query that originated the result set, but instead it says just "select. As a result it does't select my result or anything (besides being "successful"). Normally my query would show up there automatically and I couldn't find any option that corrects this problem in the menus. Please help me! Thanks. Aft...
