.. _syntax-error:

syntax-error / E0001
====================

**Message emitted:**

``%s``

**Description:**

*Used when a syntax error is raised for a module.*

**Problematic code:**

.. literalinclude:: /data/messages/s/syntax-error/bad.py
   :language: python

**Correct code:**

.. literalinclude:: /data/messages/s/syntax-error/good.py
   :language: python


**Additional details:**

The python's ast builtin module cannot parse your code if there's a syntax error, so
if there's a syntax error other messages won't be available at all.
