im trying to work my way through a python book as i am just starting to learn basic programming...and i am stuck, i am using Galileo (as the book recomended) as my programming environment and now it is trying to teach me how to make a debugger this is where i am...
BOOL WINAPI CreateProcessA(
    LPCSTR lpApplicationName,
    LPTSTR LpCommandLine
    LPSECURITY_ATTRIBUTES LpProcessAttributes,
    LPSECURITY ATTRIBUTES LpThreadAttributes,
    BOOL bInheritHandles,
    DWORD dwCreationFlags,
    LPVOID lpCurrentDirectory,
    LPSTARTUPINFO lpStartupInfo,
    LPPROCESS_INFORMATION lpProcessInformation
); 

I am gettin an error message saying...

  BOOL WINAPI CreateProcessA(
              ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

What does this mean???

p.s the book is GRAY HAT PYTHON

Sorry, Galileo does not support making debuggers, you will have to switch to Vim and GCC.

It means there is an error in your syntax. Try: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=Python+BOOL+WINAPI+syntax+error
Protip: /prog/ does not usually give out help to actual noobs. This is programming discussion, not help; even this post is gracious by our standards.

Huh, that's C (Win32 API), it's not Python. You could import CreateProcess in Python as well, as long as you know how to use its FFI, but it seems you're actually a newbie. I suggest you learn a lot more before you attempt to compile C in Python.
