[issue11644] 2to3 example.py is not a Python 2.x file

2011-03-22 Thread anatoly techtonik 

New submission from anatoly techtonik techto...@gmail.com:

http://docs.python.org/library/2to3.html#using-2to3 contains an example.py 
sample which is claimed to be Python 2.x source, but that's not true:

def greet(name):
print Hello, {0}!.format(name)
print What's your name?
name = raw_input()
greet(name)

The code is valid only for Python 2.6+. For previous versions it gives the 
following traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File ewe.py, line 5, in module
greet(name)
  File ewe.py, line 2, in greet
print Hello, {0}!.format(name)
AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'format'

Éric Araujo mer...@netwok.org added the comment:

Your title is untrue: This example code from the 2.6 docs is valid 2.6 code.  I 
can’t find a problem with that.

Plus, it's recommended to move to 2.6 or 2.7 before trying to port to 3.x.

Then the docs should say that this is the 2.6 code, not 2.x

I can't find where it is recommended to move code to Python 2.7 before porting.
