Expected an indented block error

Question

I can t understand why python gives an  Expected indentation block  error       This module prints all the items within a list    def print lol the list       The following for loop iterates over every item in the list and checks whether the list item is another list or not  in case the list item is another list it recalls the function else it prints the ist item         for each item in the list          if isinstance each item  list               print lol each item          else              print each item

I also experienced that for example   This code doesnt work and get the intended block error   class Foo models Model   title   models CharField max length 200  body   models TextField   pub date   models DateTimeField  date published   likes   models IntegerField    def   unicode   self   return self title   However  when i press tab before typing return self title statement  the code works   class Foo models Model   title   models CharField max length 200  body   models TextField   pub date   models DateTimeField  date published   likes   models IntegerField    def   unicode   self       return self title   Hope  this will help others

You have to indent the docstring after the function definition there  line 3  4    def print lol the list      this doesn t works        print  Ain t happening    Indented   def print lol the list          this works         print  Aaaand it s happening    Or you can use   to comment instead   def print lol the list    this works  too      print  Hohoho    Also  you can see PEP 257 about docstrings     Hope this helps
