Dear All,
Thanks for the help and instruction submitting the tags. I am gradually seeing the light excuse the pun.
The code worked and i have enjoyed my first success.

import RPi.GPIO as GPIO import time LedPin = 11 GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BOARD) GPIO.setup(LedPin,GPIO.OUT) GPIO.output(LedPin,GPIO.HIGH) try: while True: print ("..led on ") GPIO.output(LedPin,GPIO.LOW) time.sleep(0.5) print ("Led off") GPIO.output(LedPin,GPIO.HIGH) time.sleep(0.5) except KeyboardInterru...

In the meantime I have cut and pasted the code from the Python 3 window. I hope this helps cast a better light on the su...
