syntax-error

I am trying to define a function on the Python REPL. Every time I try to run the below code, I get a syntax error. Code: def hello(): print ("Hello!") hello() Error: C:\Users\~\Desktop>python Python 3.6.5 (v3.6.5:f59c0932b4, Mar 28 2018, 16:07:46) [MSC v.1900 32 bit (Intel)] on win32 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> def hello(): ... print ("Hello!") ... hello() File "<stdin>", line 3 hello() ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax A possible explanation I've come across on stackoverflow is this post Python Error : File "<stdin>" where it says I can't run scripts

I just trying to use a update in my application, but i just can't. A the console, this mysql command works, but here, doesn't. Well, I use this in my program: conexao = poolMySQL.connect(); final String sql = "UPDATE professor SET codlocal = ? WHERE codprof = ?"; pstmt = conexao.prepareStatement(sql); pstmt.setInt(1, local); pstmt.setInt(2, id); try { pstmt.executeUpdate(sql); } catch (SQLException ex) { Logger.getLogger(ProfessorDAO.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex); } Just reminding, codlocal is a foreign key from another table, named Localidade. I saw some examples about join,

Here's my code: String CREATE_DATABASE = "CREATE TABLE " + TABLE_NAME + "(" + KEY_ID + " INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, " + "title TEXT, "+ "author TEXT, "+ "state TEXT);"; db.execSQL(CREATE_DATABASE); The LogCat says : 12-11 23:43:50.553: E/AndroidRuntime(3706): android.database.sqlite.SQLiteException: near "CREATE TABLE": syntax error (code 1): , while compiling: CREATE TABLE PapersTable(_id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, title TEXT, author TEXT, state TEXT); The CREATE TABLE syntax is all right as you've posted it. I suspect there's a non-breaking space (ASCII 0xA0) between CREATE

When copying and pasting a bit of sample code from MSDN, I came up with the error in the title - Variable '' hides a variable in an enclosing block , All I copied was a very basic example of a try loop. As it says in the suggestion "A common cause for this error is the use of Catch e As Exception inside an event handler. If this is the case, name the Catch block variable ex rather than e." So, I did that, changed both e to ex and it worked, however, I don't understand why this doesn't cause the same error. Can someone please explain better what the error is and why e causes it, and ex doesn't?

What is happening here? I got two tables, test1 and test2: create table test1 (id1 int4 primary key); create table test2 (id2 int4 primary key); As expected, this query: select id1 from test2; produces a syntax error: ERROR: column "id1" does not exist LINE 1: select id1 from test2; However, when I try to execute this query: select * from test1 where id1 in (select id1 from test2); PostgreSQL doesn't complain, executes the query and gives me: id1 ----- (0 rows) Is there any logic in this? Or should I file a bug report? Columns from outer select are visible in sub-select. Your query is
