Python: Syntax Error? [duplicate]

Question

A=int(input('Enter the first of three numbers: '))
B=int(input('Enter the second of three numbers: '))
C=int(input('Enter the third of three numbers: '))
list=[A,B,C]
SL=sorted(list)
if SL[0]<0:
    if SL[1]-1==SL[0]:
        print (list('they are good'))
    else: print (list('not good'))
elif SL[2]-1==SL[1]:
    print (list('they are good')
else: print (list('not good'))

I keep getting a syntax error on the last line in between else and : and i have no idea why it's wrong when i have the exact same line 3 lines above. Any help much appreciated.

You should really post the exact error message.

You are missing an end parenthesis on the second to last line, it should be:

    print (list('they are good'))

You're missing a trailing ')' on the second-to-last line.

elif SL[2]-1==SL[1]:
    print (list('they are good')

Missing a closing ) at the end of the print-statement.
