Statements must be separated by newlines or semicolons

I'm literally using the same code as the official Betfair Developer example, the only difference is that I'm putting the APP_KEY_HERE and SESSION_TOKEN data.

But unlike the site, Visual Studio Code is giving me an error and a crash in the terminal.

enter image description here

Terminal response:

line 11
    print json.dumps(json.loads(response.text), indent=3)
          ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

What am I missing and what do I need to change to solve this problem?

In python 3.x, you have to enclose the arguments in ().

print(json.dumps(json.loads(response.text), indent=3))

As mentioned in comments print "" statement is written for Python 2.x and syntax for this version is not supported in VS Code.

However, you can use from __future__ import print_function and start using print() with the old interpreter or you can switch to (previously installed) Python 3.x using CTRL+SHIFT+P -> Python:Select interpreter.
