Here's my code, with the error following it:
props = ['A', 'B', 'C', 'D']
group1 = ['C', 'A', 'D', 'B', 17]
group2 = ['A', 'B', 'D', 'C', 32]
group3 = ['D', 'B', 'C', 'A', 34]
group4 = ['B', 'A', 'C', 'D', 17]

Line 60 also happens to be the very last line, which is commented. I've
tried a couple of different things to see if it's a whitespace problem,
but it doesn't seem to be. I'm just confused why it detects an error in
the commented code anyway.
Thanks.
