No intrusion.  That is what the list is for.

Two points:

You should use a descriptive subject line -- "Help" isn't really
descriptive.
You should run your code, cut and paste the traceback you get showing the
errors.  This is extremely useful for people to help you with, and as you
program, you will learn how useful it can be to find problems on your own.

So, do that, and come back with that info
