#19286: Development version is up to (1, 6, 0, 'alpha', 0) and 1.6 is intended to support python 3, so the tutorial should mention differences when using python 3 --------------------------------+-------------------- Reporter: colinnkeenan@… | Owner: nobody Type: Uncategorized | Status: new Component: Documentation | Version: master Severity: Normal | Keywords: Triage Stage: Unreviewed | Has patch: 0 Easy pickings: 0 | UI/UX: 0 --------------------------------+-------------------- My installation of Django shows django.VERSION as (1, 6, 0, 'alpha', 0). I'm doing everything with the python3 command in Ubuntu 12.10 instead of python, so in other words, I'm using python-3.2
In going through the polls tutorial, the `__unicode__()` method wasn't working. I eventually realized (by asking on stackoverflow.com) that when using python 3, there isn't any `__unicode__` method since the `__str__` method now supports unicode by default. The development version of the tutorial should be updated to mention that with python 3, you would just use `__str__` as usual and that `__unicode__` is not necessary and in fact won't even work. -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/19286> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
