I'm trying to learn Python 3 using this Book Learn Python 3 The Hard Way by Zed A. Shaw

But Exercise 23's code is not working in my PC (Windows 7 64-bit)
Here are my Code and Error
Can anyone explain to me why my code is not working?

import sys
script, input_encoding, error = sys.argv

line = language_file.readline()
if line:
print_line(line, encoding, errors)
return main(language_file, encoding, errors)
def print_line(line, encoding, errors):
next_lang = line.strip()
raw_bytes = next_lang.encode(encoding, errors = errors)
cooked_string = raw_bytes.decode(encoding, errors = errors)
print(raw_bytes, "<===>", cooked_string)
languages = open('lang.txt', encoding = 'utf-8')
main(languages, input_encoding, error)Error:λ python ex23.py utf-8 strict
