I've done the first part of Problem Set 1, although I did it a little differently, but when I do the same mathematical functions I get a SyntaxError. I've gotten a SyntaxError when I typed ProblemSet 2. It highlighted the 2. What's the problem here. I'm using Python 2.7, I've got 3.4. I don't get it and where do you send the results of the problems.

hi jack i have only just started my self , so i could not say for 100 percent. Might it be an identing error , a space that is not meant to be there.  you can post your code you have with the attach file and then other students can give feedback. As far as i am aware there is not formal work checked by teachers as its all for free.

When do you get the syntax error?  On what command?  And are you sure you are using the 2.7 and not the 3.4?

usually when I get an error like that it's because there's an unclosed parenthesis or  quotation somewhere before it for example

print ("Hello World!"
x = 3 

you'd see a syntax error at x even though the actual problem is that there is no closing parenthesis at the end of the print statement above it
