python -m http.server giving invalid syntax

[echowit]

Thanks for the reply.

My V is 3.6.5 and either way (python or python3) the return is:

file "<stdin>", line 1
python3 -m http.server 8000
(up caret under the 'p') ((Alt 94 doesn't work?)
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I tried

import http.server

and it ran OK seemingly.

help(hhtp.server)

ran OK too (hard to get out of tho).

I don't know . . .
