Hello everybody,

I hope somebody could help me with this problem. If this is not the right place 
to ask, please direct me to the right place and apologies.
I am using Python 2.7 and I am writing some code I want to work on 3.x as well. 
The problem can be reproduced with this code:

# from __future__ import division
class Number(object):
     def __init__(self,number):
         self.number=number
     def __rdiv__(self,other):
         return other/self.number
print 10/Number(5)

It prints 2 as I expect. But if I uncomment the first line, I get:

If you want to get 2 rather than 2.0 after uncommenting, then I believe you should use // and __floordiv__. In fact, you do not even need the future import. But if you mean for Number to be like a float rather than int, do as you are (with / and __truediv__).
