The Python examples for Thinking Mode contain a syntax error caused by a missing comma after reasoning_effort="high".

Affected pages:

English documentation
- Thinking Mode
- Streaming example
- Non-streaming example
Chinese documentation
- 思考模式
- 流式示例
- 非流式示例

Current:

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="deepseek-v4-pro",
    messages=messages,
    reasoning_effort="high"
    extra_body={"thinking": {"type": "enabled"}},
)

Should be:

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="deepseek-v4-pro",
    messages=messages,
    reasoning_effort="high",
    extra_body={"thinking": {"type": "enabled"}},
)

Without the comma, the example raises a Python SyntaxError.

It appears that the same issue exists in both the English and Chinese documentation, as well as in both streaming and non-streaming examples.

I found this while trying to run the example code directly from the documentation.

Thanks.
