| 1 | +The error message `Syntax Error @ 1:1. tokenizer error: '`' is not a valid character in this position\` indicates that the Python parser is encountering an invalid character right at the beginning of the file. |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +The character causing the issue is the backtick symbol (`` ` ``) which seems to have been included at the very start of the code block. This is not a valid character to start a Python statement. |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +Here is the corrected code. It is identical to the previous version, but without the leading backtick, making it syntactically correct. |

| 12 | +Task: |
| 13 | +Given two positive integers, n and k, determine if k is a power of n. |
| 14 | +
|
| 15 | +Implementation notes: Use a loop to repeatedly divide k by n. |
| 16 | +For a number k to be a power of n, it must be possible to reduce k |
| 17 | +to 1 by repeatedly dividing by n without any remainder. |
| 18 | +For example, 8 is a power of 2 because: |
| 19 | +8 / 2 = 4 |
| 20 | +4 / 2 = 2 |
| 21 | +2 / 2 = 1 |
| 22 | +The final result is 1. |
