1. Try using "python3" everywhere Mike used 'python' in his writeup. Look at "Install the Python3 libraries" in the S3 page where it mentions that you need to use python3.
2. I think you need to learn how to edit a file on a pi. It can be a little rough for new unix/linux users. I'd suggest you look in the free edx.org class "https://www.edx.org/course/introduction-to-linux"; at the chapter on editors which should walk you through how to do that.
