In this snippet:
import sys
PY3 = (sys.version_info[0] >= 3)
def print_no_nl (s):
if PY3:
print (s, end="")
else:
print (s),
I'm getting a syntax error in Python2. Python3 is fine.
How can I make this Py2+3 compatible?

Thanks. Lovely.

Hi John,
there is a nice short article by E. W. Dijkstra about why it makes sense
to start numbering at zero (and exclude the upper given bound) while
slicing a list. Might give a bit of additional understanding.

I'm sure I must have used an ASR33, but can't recall what it might have
been connected to. I do remember using card punch machines for IBM 360
input in 1972 at USC, and toggling front panel switches for binary input on

And it's quite remarkable that the designers of the ASR33
knew exactly where it would need to be for Emacs users
years later! I think Richard Stallman must have a time
machine as well.

And the bit you have to be REALLY careful of when working with both
Python and JS is that you have to have "obj.foo(...)" as a single
expression. Consider:

Hi, I'm learning python and full of extensive tutorials around. Getting a bit
lost and overflowed in my head with tuples, dictionaries, lists, etc ... etc...
Everything great, but I'd like to perform some basic task while learning the
rest. For example, I'm having a hard time to find some practi
