Keep getting this error when I run this. I tried copy/pasting this into pycharm, selecting an option that converted all the spaces to tabs, then tried vice-versa, neither worked. What am I supposed to do?
from peewee import *
import datetime
db = SqliteDatabase('diary.db')
class Entry(Model):
content = TextField()
timestamp = DateTimeField(default=datetime.datetime.now)
# timestamp
class Meta:
database = db
def initialize():
# Create database and table if they don't exist
db.connect()
db.create_tables([Entry], safe=True)
def menu_loop():
# Show the menu
def add_entry():
# Add entry
def view_entries():
# View previous entries
def delete_entry(entry):
# Delete entry
if __name__ == '__main__':
menu_loop()
initialize()
Moderator edited: Added markdown so that the code will render properly on the forums.

'''python
# some code
'''
so it looks like:
#some code

Treehouse TeacherHi Colin! I've taken the liberty of adding some markdown to your code so that it will be easier for others to read. The answer below has a pretty good description of how to do this. For more formatting tips and tricks, take a look at the Markdown Cheatsheet link at the bottom
of the "Add an Answer" section.
