speech recognition python code not working

Question

I am running the following code in Python 2.7 with pyAudio installed.

import speech_recognition as sr
r = sr.Recognizer()
with sr.Microphone() as source:             


        

Answer 1

In addition to Tushar's answer, I suggest trying a nicer external USB microphone. PyAudio can have issues with a simple built-in laptop microphone.
