in thread Error in Camel Book Ver2?

The code that you provide there is not the code giving you that error message. The error message you list indicates that you have an extraneous space in ||=. ||= should not have any spaces.

The code you provided will give you an entirely different error, namely syntax error at - line 2, near "print" since you didn't have a semicolon at the end of the first line.

    ahh,

    huh,

    hmm,

    that's a weird place for spaces to make a difference, since, 

     
$pi         =           $foo         ||     67;
