How to write a Python 2.6+ script that does gracefully fail with older pyhton?
- by Sorin Sbarnea
I'm using the new print from Python 3.x and I observed that the following code does not compile due to the end=' '.
from __future__ import print_function
import sys
if sys.hexversion < 0x02060000:
raise Exception("py too old")
...
print("x",end=" ") # fails to compile with py24
How can I continue using the new syntax but make the script fails nicely? Is it mandatory to call another script and use only safe syntax in this one?
