Error setting my API key

Hi,

I see the error below when executing the second command to set my API key. Do you know how I can get past this error please?

Python 2.7.12 |Anaconda 4.2.0 (64-bit)| (default, Jun 29 2016, 11:07:13) [MSC v.1500 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32

>>> import virustotal
>>> v = virustotal.VirusTotal(MY_API_KEY)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 'MY_API_KEY' is not defined
>>>

Thanks for your help

@raveydaveygravy You haven't defined a variable called MY_API_KEY ( MY_API_KEY="" ), it would be wise to learn the basics before you start using public libraries

Don't worry about it, I found something else to use ;)

@raveydaveygravy just trying to help resolve the issue, you seemed to not get past the undefined variable part so I offered a few words to help you get past it :)
