IndentationError: unexpected indent

[desktop]

I have this class:

class case(blop.case):
   def __init__(self, n, a, b):
 blop.case.__init__(self)
 print 'Monty Python's Flying Circus has a ' within it...'
 ...
 ...

But I get an error when I run the .py script from shell saying:

 print 'Monty Python's Flying Circus has a ' within it...'
 ^
IndentationError: unexpected indent

I have tried to indent the print statement 8 blanks but that does not 
help. Any hints?

bitwise shift?

[desktop]

I have found a code example with this loop.

for k in range(10, 25):
   n = 1 << k;


I have never read Python before but is it correct that 1 get multiplied 
with the numbers 10,11,12,12,...,25 assuming that 1 << k means "1 shift 
left by k" which is the same as multiplying with k.
