Definitely a relief. After delving into Python only a few short months ago, everything I was reading suggested 2.x.x. When I switched to another book to continue with my studies, some of the code wasn't working ... welcome to 3.x.x.  Needless to say, I'm using 3.4.1 exclusively today unless something bizarre requires me to do otherwise.

Thanks for sharing.
