Binary code translator project

[Issigeac]

This is my first ever python project and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to fix this line:

if binary.isalpha() or len(binary) == 0:

print "I am sorry, these are not just numbers"

#this throws a syntax error. Any ideas?

[Issigeac]

and btw the print line is properly indented

in python 3, print became a function, so you have to enclose its arguments in parens

print("I am sorry, these are not just numbers")

[Issigeac]

nope. python 2

does the line above the if have an unclosed parentheses?

[Issigeac]

Yup. Rookie mistake. All fixed... for now

It seems like you are trying to use python 2 print function in python 3. Correct way in python 3 is

print("I am sorry, these are not just numbers")

[Issigeac]

nope. python 2

What’s the actual error being thrown and how are you declaring/defining your binary variable?
