Question

i have this code from the django sample tutorial

from django.db import models
from datetime import datetime

# Create your models here.

class Poll(models.Model):
    question = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    pub_date = models.DateTimeField('date published')

    def __unicode__(self):
        return self.question

    def was_published_today(self):
        return self.pub_date.date() == datetime.date.today()  

and i am getting this error: IndentationError: unexpected indent

on this line:

def __unicode__(self):

any idea what is wrong ??

Answer 1

My only guess is you have tabs mixed with spaces.

It’s recommended to use spaces over tabs, with 4 spaces per indentation.

Do you have invisible characters visible on your editor to make sure that isn’t the case?
