Python Development Techdegree Student 657 PointsI've been stuck on this for awhile now can anyone help me out
"""
This is importing a function named `tweet` from a file
that we unfortunately don't have access to change.
You use it like so:
>>> tweet("Hello this is my tweet")
If the function cannot connect to Twitter,
the function will raise a `CommunicationError`
If the message is too long,
the function will raise a `MessageTooLongError`
"""
from twitter import (
tweet,
MessageTooLongError,
CommunicationError,
)
message = input("What would you like to tweet? ")
# Your code here
try:
tweet(message)
except CommunicationError:
print("An error occurred attempting to connect to Twitter. Please try again!")
except MessageTooLongError as err:
print(f"Oh no! Your message was too long ({err})")

1,088 PointsWhat version of Python are you using. Format strings (print(f"Oh no...")) are only allowed in Python 3.6 and higher. Try print("Oh no! Your message was to long {}".format(err)) and see if that helps. You might have an extra set of round brackets, too. Should it be {err} rather than ({err})?
