As others have said you are using version 2 syntax with version 3 Python.
You need to "downgrade" to version 2.7 of Python or find a version 3
tutorial.
If you have programmed before in another language you should probably
stick with v3 and use the official tutorial on the Python web site.
If you are a complete beginner to programming and Python then you need
to visit the beginners page and find a v3 tutor you like (you could try
mine! :-)
Or downgrade to 2.7 and use any of the many v2 tutorials out there
(including mine! :-)
