I'm not sure, but I think your code would become Py3 compatible if you
just change your prints. Which I'd recommend - it's not difficult to
just always print a single string, and most example code is ASCII-only
and has no difficulty with the bytes/unicode distinction. But, point
of curiosity...

... why do you call up "type(dict())"? Why not either just "dict" or "type({})"?
