Re: I'm a newbie and I'm still stumped...

Thank you, Emile, Paul, Terry, and Joel for your suggestions! And the
error persists.

Maybe my error is coming from running the old version (2.7.6) of Python,
but I can’t figure out why that would be happening???

I downloaded 3.4.3 again from the Python.org website for my Mac.
I inserted the "import sys" and did “print (sys.version)” into the code.

So here what the code is:

#!/usr/bin/env python3
import sys
print (sys.version)
word = input('Enter a word ')


Here are the results I got below, showing the same error. The first line
says, 
"2.7.6 (default, Sep 9 2014, 15:04:36)”. Does that mean I am running the
old Python? How could that be since I am SURE I downloaded 3.4.3 (it even
gives the folder name as “Python 3.4” in the Applications folder on my Mac.

2.7.6 (default, Sep  9 2014, 15:04:36)
[GCC 4.2.1 Compatible Apple LLVM 6.0 (clang-600.0.39)]
Enter a word serendipity
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test short.py", line 4, in <module>
    word = input('Enter a word ')
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 'serendipity' is not defined




Please help…

BIG SMILE...

Always, Dwight
