Need help with lists

I got it to print but still got an error. What am I missing and why?

continents.py 
continents = [
    'Asia',
    'South America',
    'North America',
    'Africa',
    'Europe',
    'Antarctica',
    'Australia',
]

print ("continents:")
for continent in continents:
    print ("*" + continent)

* South America is different from *South America

Just incorporate a space into your output of each continent
