Coding Error

[nikhilrambadi]

I am trying to create a carver for the JPEG image file which will recover the deleted JPEG files from the disk dump or dd image. But i am new to the python platform, so can you please help me to debug my code? The dd image is downloaded from the link www.cfreds.nist.gov/FileCarving/

My code :

What is the error exactly?
