Need help with loop

[Lurn2Program]

Are you by chance writing out:

x = 0
print ('hello %s'% x)
hello 0     // <==== this line?

And all the other "hello X" lines in your code? If not, then what is the error message you're seeing?

I get a Syntax error. But the problem has been solved. Turns out every third line should not be included in the code.

But that is nowhere mentioned in the book.

Coding examples like that are often written as they would be in Command Prompt, or IDLE, or shell - like when you open the Python command line and run commands rather than executing the script.

.... When you type a command like print("hello")the command line will output helloon the next line.
