add #!/usr/bin/env python at the top of your script, or call your script using python myscript.py

Are you typing this at the unix command prompt? You should be doing this inside the python environment, ie. type python at the prompt and work from there.
Also, no ; needed at the end of the line in Python

add
#!/usr/bin/env python
or but i will prefer to use the above one.
#!/usr/bin/python
In case you have installed python 2 and python 3 and python 2 is default you can run python 3 by using these command
#!/usr/bin/env python3
at top of the file
or run this way
python code.py

I was having a similar problem with the same error, and the comment from tripleee helped me understand:
The error message indicates that the script gets executed by bash, not python.
Their solution of adding !/usr/bin/python at the very start of my code didn't do it for me, but I noticed that my code(extra).py contained parentheses (), so I renamed to my codeextra.py and that was it, problem solved. :)
#!/usr/bin/pythonas the first line of the file.#is actually the admin prompt (vs the non-admin prompt$). BTW there was a formatting error I just fixed; it was all supposed to be on one line.
