In both Python 2.7 and 3.3+, you can use the 3rd-party six module to
help with forward compatibility:

from six.moves import xrange

In Python 2.7, it's just the normal xrange (importing is a no op
basically), but in Python 3 it points to range.

Kind of wish parts of six were in the Python standard library.
