Yes. Indentations are part of the syntax which Python enforces.

Post your code, perhaps?

Indentations are whitespaces placed on the same line prior to your code. E.g. #indented #not indented #indented similarly to line 1 #further indented This means that Python groups codes with similar levels of indentations into a single block (instead of other languages which commonly utilises brackets. {} )

I just got it right now. At first, when I type in the code. it was like this.. x = 4 if x == 5: print("false") else: print("true") but when I arrange it properly, it worked. x = 4 If x == 5: print("false") else: print("true")
