Python 2 to Python 3 conversion

Question

This isn't a question, but in my research I read that many people don't know that you can auto convert your code from Python2 to 3.

The process is built into Python3 and is called 2to3. Using $ 2to3 -w example.py in the command line will update your code. Without the -w you'll just be shown the difference without it overwriting the file.

This will be useful when you borrow code from somewhere else, like Github, but it's older.

Here's the Python directory:
