The problem is because some of your lines end with the Python escape character: .
The backslash () character is used to escape characters that otherwise have a special meaning, such as newline, backslash itself, or the quote character.
String and Bytes literals
When a line ends with a backslash, it tells Python that the line is continued on the next line.
if some_condition
or some_other_condition:
To counter this, you either want to 'double up' your backslashes to escape your escape characters:
gv_sixTries = '''
| | /Y . . Y\
| | // | | \\
| | // | . | \\
'''
Or mark your string with an r
to mark it as a raw string.
Both string and bytes literals may optionally be prefixed with a letter
'r'
or'R'
; such strings are called raw strings and treat backslashes as literal characters.
