We don’t really know either, without seeing the file. It probably has some unwanted garbage produced by your fancy-schmancy editor. Get a real plain text editor (TextWrangler for example) and don’t use rich-text editors. With a real editor, your code works here. Also, don’t do this: > except: > print('An error occured.')
