Newbie issue:
I downloaded http://www.python.org/download/releases/3.0.1/ (windows
insaller), opened the interpreter, wrote a print "Hello World" program
in helloworld.py, and in the interpreter typed
execfile("helloworld.py")
Got back
NameError: name 'execfile' is not defined
(following tutorial in David Beazley's Python Essential Reference).
Is execfile not supported in 3?
That's correct.
From http://docs.python.org/dev/3.0/whatsnew/3.0.html you can find this
line:
Removed execfile(). Instead of execfile(fn) use exec(open(fn).read()).
