SyntaxError: invalid syntax
pass is a keyword, as in:
def f ():
pass
Correct form when you want to use a keyword for a variable is to precede
it
with and underscore.
_pass = md5.new()
Other way round; you put the underscore at the end according to PEP-8
(http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/)
pass_ = md5.new()
