Why does my python for loop colon get a syntax error?

not_a_robot is right.

Also, in the second loop, you're not even printing the value of the x variable, just an "x". 

a=int(input("Enter a number."))
c=int(input("Enter another number."))
...
for x in range(c):
    print(x)

There is simple typo in your code, see a,c declarations where you have missed closing one more parenthesis. 

a=int(input("Enter a number."))
for x in range(a):
    print(" ")
c=int(input("Enter another number."))
for x in range(c):
    print("x")

Hope that helps.

This issue is only a missing parenthesis on the input line: a=int(input("Enter a number.") and c=int(input("Enter another number.")

a=int(input("Enter a number."))
for x in range(a):
    print(" ")
c=int(input("Enter another number."))
for x in range(c):
    print("x")
