  <p>But when I go to run it I get</p>
  
  <pre><code>File "MegaDogeCoinTicker.py", line 11
  SyntaxError: Non-ASCII character '\xe2' in file MegaDogeCoinTicker.py on line 
  11, but no encoding declared; see http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0263.html 
  for details
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What do I need to do to fix it? It worked when I was running it on my pi but I can't seem to get it to run on my laptop. My laptop is running Python 2.7.5</p>
