body: <p>I'm using the Requests library with Python 2.7 and get the following error:</p>
  <pre><code>Traceback (most recent call last):

  SyntaxError: invalid syntax
  </code></pre>
  <p>I installed Requests with the following command:</p>
  <pre><code>sudo pip install requests -t /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages
  </code></pre>
  <p>The file I'm running is just main.py with the content:</p>
  <pre><code>import json
  import requests
  
  if __name__ == &quot;__main__&quot;:
  
      print('hello world')
  </code></pre>
  <p>I have both Python 3.6 and 2.7 installed and selected Python 2.7 as the interpreter in VS Code.</p>
