Indentation Error in Python

Question

I can't compile because of this part in my code:

if command == 'HOWMANY':

 opcodegroupr = "A0" opcoder = "85"

elif command == 'IDENTIFY':

 opcodegroupr = "A0" opcoder = "81"

I have this error:

Sorry: IndentationError: ('unindent does not match any outer indentation level', ('wsn.py', 1016, 30, "\t\telif command == 'IDENTIFY':\n"))

But I don't see any indentation error. What can be the problem?

Answer 1

You are mixing tabs and spaces.

Find the exact location with:

python -tt yourscript.py

and replace all tabs with spaces. You really want to configure your text editor to only insert spaces for tabs as well.

Answer 2

Use tabs instead of spaces. This is the main problem for indentation error in python
