There's a common gotcha related to Python tuples – tuple elements need
to be separated by commas, even if there's only one element.
INSTALLED_APPS = ('polls',) will do what you want. Right now, the
parentheses are being interpreted as grouping a single expression, and
when the code runs "for app in INSTALLED_APPS" it iterates over the
characters in the string 'polls', instead of the strings in the tuple.
Hope that helps,
Eric
