Corresponding Python code:

import easygopigo3 as easy
import time
import easygps

sensor_readings = None
gpg = easy.EasyGoPiGo3()
gps_sensor = easygps.GPS()
gps_sensor.read() # take an initial reading


# start
while True:
    print(gps_sensor.get_latitude_str())
    time.sleep(0.2)
    print(gps_sensor.get_longitude_str())
    time.sleep(0.2)
    print(gps_sensor.get_utc0_time())
    time.sleep(0.2)
    time.sleep(0.05) # slowdown

Resultant error thrown:

Python 3.7.3 (/usr/bin/python3)
>>> %cd /home/pi/Desktop
>>> %Run Read_GPS_from_Bloxter.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
