My first Python script broke because I forgot to indent a line.
I spent an hour last Thursday trying to figure out why my simple loop wouldn't run. Has anyone else had this happen when they were starting out?

Honestly that hour you spent is such a universal starter experience. Tbh I see this everywhere, like how one tiny typo in a web address gives you a 404 error. It's wild how the smallest, most invisible detail can completely break a system. Makes you appreciate all the hidden rules in things we use every day.

Ugh, that's the worst feeling. I swear every programmer has a story about fighting with a missing colon or a typo. What was your script supposed to do?
