f = open("myfile.txt")
try:

Hello,

The old syntax for exceptions still works in Python2.x (all versions).
The new syntax works in Python2.6+ and Python3.

Hello,
I am using things like:
except Exception as inst:
and
with open("myfile.txt") as f:
for line in f:
print line
Things that seems to be new in python 2.6 and higher, however reading
http://docs.python.org/tutorial/errors.html and this not clear when this new
syntaxes appeared.
