Research direction

Start with the Morse Code translator linked at pastebin.com/HuAfMdca and inspect line 40, then determine whether the reported error comes from Python or the micro:bit. Reproduce the problem in the PythonEditor environment; done means identifying the cause and confirming the translator runs without the reported error.

Description

I am not sure if the problem is microbit or python itself.
It is a Morse Code translator and the error is most likely on Line 40
