The error is very explicit: you've written animation.Play, but not declared anywhere what "animation" is. If you want to access the animation component attached to the gameobject, you need to use:

 GetComponent<Animation>().Play();

I also recommend you read the manual or some beginner's tutorials.

The reference to animation is missing. In your start function, call

 animation = GetComponent<Animation>();
