Python/Spyder Syntax error

Question

Hallo,

while running the ft01_poisson.py example on spyder, I get the following error:

"....

runfile('/home/mosdef/Schreibtisch/ft01_poisson.py', wdir='/home/mosdef/Schreibtisch')
File "/home/mosdef/Schreibtisch/ft01_poisson.py", line 11
V = FunctionSpace(mesh, ’P’, 1)
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
...."

Does anyone know what the problem is?

Answer 1

The quotes you use in ’P’ is not valid Python syntax. Use either 'P' or "P".
