1Six is a Python 2 and 3 compatibility library. It provides utility functions 2for smoothing over the differences between the Python versions with the goal of 3writing Python code that is compatible on both Python versions. See the 4documentation for more information on what is provided. 5 6Six supports every Python version since 2.5. It is contained in only one Python 7file, so it can be easily copied into your project.
