You can trick 2.7 into behaving similar to 3.x in that respect with a from __future__ import: Python 2.7.1 (r271:86832, Jan 5 2011, 10:42:58) [GCC 4.4.1] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> from __future__ import print_function >>> print("you are asking for trouble", end="!\n") you are asking for trouble! However, I recommend that you install Python 3.1 in addition to 2.7 and use 3.1 to learn the language. If you don't you'll run into a lot of tiny but frustrating differences. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
