Remember to:

• Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

You've got an indentation error

Whenever you have a try: the bit after must be indented

this is on line 215

You've got a lot of try/except blocks. I'm not sure that is optimal

[lavish void]

So what should i do?

[potent pilot]

^

[lavish void]

Yeah but how many times to i have to oress space mb if im anoying im new

[potent pilot]

four times usually

or tab

depends which one your code uses

[lavish void]

Let me try

[potent pilot]

everything between the try up to the corresponding except

[lavish void]

Better?

[potent pilot]

run it and you tell me

[lavish void]

This now

[potent pilot]

you've got another indentation error

on line 221

try:
  something()
except:
  something()

# this is incorrect

try:
something()
except:
something()

sorry it was line 221

[lavish void]

So it is with if aswell?

[potent pilot]

i dont understand what you mean

yes

!indent

Indentation

Indentation is leading whitespace (spaces and tabs) at the beginning of a line of code. In the case of Python, they are used to determine the grouping of statements.

Spaces should be preferred over tabs. To be clear, this is in reference to the character itself, not the keys on a keyboard. Your editor/IDE should be configured to insert spaces when the TAB key is pressed. The amount of spaces should be a multiple of 4, except optionally in the case of continuation lines.

Example

def foo():
    bar = 'baz'  # indented one level
    if bar == 'baz':
        print('ham')  # indented two levels
    return bar  # indented one level

The first line is not indented. The next two lines are indented to be inside of the function definition. They will only run when the function is called. The fourth line is indented to be inside the if statement, and will only run if the if statement evaluates to True. The fifth and last line is like the 2nd and 3rd and will always run when the function is called. It effectively closes the if statement above as no more lines can be inside the if statement below that line.

Indentation is used after:
1. Compound statements (eg. if, while, for, try, with, def, class, and their counterparts)
2. Continuation lines
