Although published in 2017, this book does not cover the latest version of Python, and explicitly stated:"For this book, you need to install Python 2.7x version on your machine, along with a simpletext editor (Notepad or Notepad++). All the examples are meant to be run on the Python 2.7version and will not work in Python 3.x versions."This is very strange considering that Python 3 has been out since 2008, and Python.org says "Short version: Python 2.x is legacy, Python 3.x is the present and future of the language "I am getting a big disgusted with Packt books.
