@insidesherpa @anamritraj @marcharper can you help me with this issue?

This is because your python version is not updated.

Try updating your python version to at least 3.6 and it should work.

Alternatively, if you want to run this on current version of python you should change this line to

quotes = json.loads(urllib.request.urlopen(QUERY.format(random.random())).read().decode('utf-8'))

Notice this .decode('utf-8') at the end.
