If you didn't put a colon between 0 and return, it's invalid syntax.

Ok, that's a fair cop. I don't usually code in Python and could well have got that wrong. Still, if that were the problem then the desired solution should have been a correction of my syntax error, not a change from two returns to one; so I stand by my criticism that the database is too small.
