Python lists
 
Have been trying to follow a python tutorial in the Full Circle magazine and consistently fail?

I typed the following into my text editor "gedit"

Code:

#! /usr/bin/env python

DaysInMonth =
[31,28,31,30,31,30,31,31,30,31,30,31]

print DaysInMonth[6] (for July)

I saved the above as daysinmonth.py in my python_examples directory. I then opened a terminal and navigated to the python_examples directory and typed;

Code:

chmod +x daysinmonth.py
Finally, still in the terminal i typed python ~/python_examples/daysinmonth.py and the output was:

Code:

frump@ubuntu-linux-uk:~$ python ~/python_examples/daysinmonth.py
  File "/home/frump/python_examples/daysinmonth.py", line 3
    DaysInMonth =
                ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
frump@ubuntu-linux-uk:~$

Would someone please tell me what i am doing wrong.

Finally managed to get daysinmonth.py to work by removing (for July) hooray!
