Syntax Error

[Windows Server 2003]

Trying to mess with my gpio but I keep getting a gay error. I dont understand the error? Ive checked spelling like 6 times. When I try and run it it highlights the bolded gpio in red and doesnt tell me the exact error.

 

#blink.py
import time
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO

GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)
GPIO.setup(4. GPIO.OUT)
GPIO.output(4. True)
time.sleep(1)
GPIO.output(4. False)

Try using commas instead of dots between different function parameters.

So no more syntax error. But the light wont blink

The code looks like it should turn on for a second and then back off, you need a loop if you want it to blink.

Also, I can't be sure if you've connected everything up correctly, or are even running the script itself.

 

You have to give more details about your problem and setup, not just "It doesn't work."

Explaining should be enough.
