Syntax error in string

Question

I'm getting a syntax error when I run this:

class Stats:
    Str = random.randint(3,18)
    Int = random.randint(3,18)
    Wis = random.randint(3,18)
    Char = random.randint(3,18)
    Con = random.randint(3,18)
    print "Type the name of a stat (Str, Int, Wis, Char or Con) to see its value"

It says that the 'closing' quote is a syntax error- since when are strings syntax errors?

Why are you printing inside your class definition and not inside any methods? — Kirk Strauser, Jan 18 '13 at 04:32

Are you using python 3+? print is a function in python 3.

class Stats:
    Str = random.randint(3,18)
    Int = random.randint(3,18)
    Wis = random.randint(3,18)
    Char = random.randint(3,18)
    Con = random.randint(3,18)
    print("Type the name of a stat (Str, Int, Wis, Char or Con) to see its value")
