# creating an authorized reddit instance
reddit = praw.Reddit(client_id = client_id, 
                     client_secret = client_secret, 
                     username = username, 
                     password = password,
                     user_agent = user_agent) 

# the name of the redditor
redditor_name = "spez"

# instantiating the Redditor class
redditor = reddit.redditor(redditor_name)

print("The link karma of " + redditor_name + " is : " +
      str(redditor.link_karma))

                     username = username, 
                     password = password,
                     user_agent = user_agent)
