So I am trying to write a bit of code and a simple numerical subtraction y_diff = y_diff-H is giving me the error Syntaxerror: Non-ASCII character '\x96' in file on line 70, but no encoding declared. Even though I have deleted some lines before it and this line is no longer line 70, I am still getting the error every time. I have tried to change the encoding of the file to utf-8 but to no avail, I still am having this issue. Any ideas?
0x96 is the Win1252 minus sign character. Did you copy & paste this code from a Web browser or a word processor?
Delete the character between "y_diff" and "H" and replace it with a plain ASCII subtraction sign.
