Hi Even
The testsuite has numerous instances like this:
if version_info >= (3, 0, 0):
for i in range(100000):
exec("f.write(b'\\xa0\\x86\\x01\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00')")
else:
for i in range(100000):
f.write('\xa0\x86\x01\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00')
Why is it necessary on Python 3 to use exec() in this way? It seems
very complicated and counterintuitive.
Thanks, Ben
