LGTM static code analysis tool reports that the function 'input' is
unsafe. Changed to use raw_input which then converts it using
ast.literal_eval() which is safe.

raw_input doesn't exist in Python 3.

Perhaps you should do this at the top of the script:

try:
     raw_input  # Python 2
except NameError:
     raw_input = input  # Python 3

That way, all calls to raw_input will call the intended function.


The suggested way in the python docs is a little different:

https://python-future.org/compatible_idioms.html#raw_input()


Or that :)


Actually, this requires a dependency. "future" appears to be preinstalled on most distributions, but "builtins" isn't. In fact, i can't even find it in pip.
