Yeah, when people are talking today about “Python”, unqualified by version, I think it's a fair assumption that responses can be only regarding Python 3 unless there's good reason otherwise :-) So, yes there's something wrong with ‘itertools.count().next’. What's wrong with it is that it works only on a dead-end Python that everyone should be busily migrating away from. (And I see Paul was later made aware of that. So, we all win! :-) -- \ “I was gratified to be able to answer promptly and I did.
