Which copied too much into the file.
Edit circle.py until it is a proper python program.

My initial guess was that you copied the >>> prompts, but you later 
message shows that it was the welcome header. Header and prompts all 
need to go. Idle makes it easier to cut and paste a single statement 
from its shell to an editor window and then save. Or start your code in 
an editor, such as IDLE's.
