Implemented. Thanks.
At the moment I also use:
========================================================================
from __future__ import division, print_function
.
.
.
# To work with Python2 the flush is a seperate statement
print('It took {0:.5f} seconds'.format(end_time - start_time))
sys.stdout.flush()
========================================================================
Would it be better to use:
========================================================================
from six import print_
.
.
.
print_('It took {0:.5f} seconds'.format(end_time - start_time), flush = true)
========================================================================
