Python Debugging and fixing problems

Since you didn't include your script here for checking, I could only tell you about what happened. This error is triggered when you started an open parenthesis, quotation mark, bracket or curly braces and missed it's end part. Missing this part confuses the compiler on where the "end of line (EOL)" is. The image below shows the occurrence of the error with a missing end quotation mark.

To solve this:

You should check every line of your whole script for unpaired parentheses, brackets, curly braces, quotation marks and others.

Or

Rewrite the whole file while paying extra attention to parts of the lines with quotation marks such as stings.



Useful Bit:

When working with quotes, parenthesis, brackets or curly braces, always type them in pairs and then insert the code in between. This helps in lowering the chances of errors such as this one.
