Rahul Kanade , your code has a poor formatting, specially for the indentation (using only 1 space per indentation level has a bad readability). > use 4 spaces for each indentation level as it is recommended in the python python style guide

#read comments... What is your task by this? w = input() v = len(w) print(v) i = 0 for g in w: i<v # no effect statement if g[i] in g[i+1:] and i+1 < v: print("false") break elif : #condition is missing , also wrong indentation i+1=v # wrong way : do v = i+1 left side should be variable print("true") break else: print("true") break

You are using one equal (=) sign in elif, you need to use 'double equals' (==) for comparision change, (line 12) -> i+1=v to -> i+1 == v Also, Fix the formatting, do it as suggested by Lothar and Jayakrishna (to fix problem: delete one space in line 12)

elif: is invlid syntax. Condition missing. Rahul Kanade You may trying, elif i+1 == v : #correct way
