Return to Question

I am new in this area. I was practicing the function GetParameterAsText(). I know that when you run the code (for example in PythonWin) it works like the function raw_input(), therefore it should show a small window where the user can input the required fields.

My problem is that I tried yesterday to use the function GetParameterAsText(), but I have this error, and I think it is about the libraries:

I used the example in the ArcGIS Help: http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.1/index.html#//018v00000047000000
