That is fine, right now they are doing a lot of work on 3.x to get it to the point that the larger community can move to 3.x. I only posted so that a person similarly set up could use the code. As it is right now 3.1.3 is the current version of 3 series Python with 3.2 "coming soon".
There is actually a command to make 2.7 more or less compatible with the 3.x series. That escapes me at the moment and since I'm on break at work I can't look it up.
What is interesting here is that I've had this idea to make an app for the iPhone that would handle these sorts of calculations for various technical pursuits. Sort of an automated reference book. Unfortunately I have lots of good ideas and little time. Oh well.
