Oh, I didn't know that's how it works. ok. Makes sense. Something is still
wrong though. I have a file named 'test_script.py'.
Here's the code:
def showMaxFactor(num):
count = num / 2
while count > 1:
if num % count == 0:
print 'largest factor of %d is %d' % \
(num, count)
break
count -= 1
else:
print num, "is prime"
for eachNum in range(10, 21):
showMaxFactor(eachNum)
With the debugger ON, I hit F5 and get this.
'Expected an indent block'
I wouldn't say that's debugging anything. I can't tell what line is throwing
the error, or how to fix it.
Any thoughts?
