Why do I have invalid syntax in default pygame.py?

Question

Always, when I want to use Python framework pygame and I want to compile it, it's printing this:

    Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/hanisek/game.py", line 1, in <module>
    import pygame
  File "/home/hanisek/pygame.py", line 3
    03f3 0d0a 5fff 9355 6300 0000 0000 0000
       ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Do you know why?

You are not importing pygame the framework, you are importing pygame.py, a file in the same directory:

    import pygame
  File "/home/hanisek/pygame.py", line 3

Remove or rename that file.

It's interesting. I installed pygame, but.. It didn't work.. I reinstalled it, removed pygame.py and it actually work!
