The clue is in the error message (which you thankfully posted too).

IndentationError: expected an indented block.

When using a conditional like else, you need to indent anything that you want to run as part of that conditional statement.

So, for this instance, you need to indent the print("camelot") command 4 spaces.

I hope this helps you Shmuel

print("try again") must be indented to the right relative to else: (preferably by 4 characters). That is:

else:
    print("try again")
