            not d :


    d = True

I receive an invalid syntax error on the first/second line of code. Can you guys please help?

Answer 1

Try this

if a >= b + c and not d :
    d = True

Two things: 1) indentations and linebreaks are important in python. You should check the language syntax. 2) Check the style guide for python.
