    @C0D4 You can automatically port it to Python 3 and fix the remaining errors. The unit tests should care of the porting errors :) (I'm over simplifying I know 😂)

    @7Raiden haha, is there a lib for that?
  • 2
    @C0D4 Yeah I think it's in the python docs! It's officially supported! You just have to get rid of the itertools stuff and osme other minor!

    @sergiolarosa89 oh I was kidding 😅
    Well on the lib part anyway.

    I could spend a day or two to rewrite it if needed. It's not production code so not the end of the world.

    Here's my story.
    When I started learning python, version 3 was new so I went with it, cause new version means better than the previous one, right

    No, it turned out to hell for me.
    No library was supported for python 3 then.
    All tutorials were for python 2, had to go back to 2.6 then.

    Using it because we inherited a project using MySQL 8.x and it seems to require Python 2.7.3 on installation. We haven't had time to upgrade.

    Because Py2 is the one I learned. I can't get used to the changes from 2 to 3. Plus 3 is about to be deprecated too, so... might as well wait for Py4.

    I still am, sadly. At my job we have to work with an API that is python2 only, and it doesn't look like we're gonna change that too soon :/
