Put the quotes back around """Calculate Compounding Interest""".  I am 
guessing that you got rid of the quotes, and that kinda worked to remove 
your previous "syntax error" problem.  Except now it is looking for 
calculateCompoundingInterest as a variable.

Another way to make lines that do not parse (e.g., comment lines) in 
python is to put #  in front of it.  Like this:

# calculateCompoundingInterest
