Python Versions 2.5.x or 3.0.x?

Both are wildly out of date but it would make sense to start in the 3.0.x range...

Current Python Version in 2.x.x range is 2.7.5 and in 3.x.x range is 3.4.0a1...

I personally enjoy writing Python code to work from 1.4.0 to 3.3.x on multi-platform without modification...

An example is here:-

Aminet - dev/src/BIG_TIME.py.txt

It works on Classic AMIGA OS, (WinUAE and E-UAE), Apple Macbook Pro 10.7.5, Debian Linux and PCLinuxOS 2009 from Python Versions 1.4.0 to 3.3.2 inclusive without modfication.

Have fun...

PYTHON-COVERAGE(1)					      General Commands Manual						PYTHON-COVERAGE(1)

NAME
python-coverage - measure code coverage of Python program execution SYNOPSIS
python-coverage -x module.py [ARG...] python-coverage -e python-coverage -r [-m] python-coverage -a [file...] DESCRIPTION
python-coverage executes a Python program and measures which of its statements are executed and which are not. It stores the information in the file .coverage in the current working directory. OPTIONS
-e Erase the .coverage file. -x Execute a Python module, giving it the remaining command line arguments. -r Produce a coverage report. -m With -r, show the line numbers that were missed by the execution. -a Annotate source files. For each source file foo, produce foo,cover, with executed lines prefixed by ">" and non-executed by "!". --help Produce a help summary. It might be more helpful than this manual page. AUTHOR
The python-coverage command is a one-line Python script which calls the coverage.py Python module to do all the work. The module was rigi- nally developed by Gareth Rees, and is now developed by Ned Batchelder. The module's home page is http://www.nedbatchelder.com/code/modules/coverage.html. This manual page was cobbled together by Lars Wirzenius for Debian, by copy-pasting from the help texts from the module. PYTHON-COVERAGE(1)
