Invoking the Interpreter
========================
-The Python interpreter is usually installed as :file:`/usr/local/bin/python3.4`
+The Python interpreter is usually installed as :file:`/usr/local/bin/python3.5`
on those machines where it is available; putting :file:`/usr/local/bin` in your
Unix shell's search path makes it possible to start it by typing the command:
.. code-block:: text
- python3.4
+ python3.5
to the shell. [#]_ Since the choice of the directory where the interpreter lives
is an installation option, other places are possible; check with your local
popular alternative location.)
On Windows machines, the Python installation is usually placed in
-:file:`C:\\Python34`, though you can change this when you're running the
+:file:`C:\\Python35`, though you can change this when you're running the
installer. To add this directory to your path, you can type the following
command into the command prompt in a DOS box::
- set path=%path%;C:\python34
+ set path=%path%;C:\python35
Typing an end-of-file character (:kbd:`Control-D` on Unix, :kbd:`Control-Z` on
Windows) at the primary prompt causes the interpreter to exit with a zero exit
prints a welcome message stating its version number and a copyright notice
before printing the first prompt::
- $ python3.4
- Python 3.4 (default, Sep 24 2012, 09:25:04)
+ $ python3.5
+ Python 3.5 (default, Sep 24 2012, 09:25:04)

On BSD'ish Unix systems, Python scripts can be made directly executable, like
shell scripts, by putting the line ::
- #! /usr/bin/env python3.4
+ #! /usr/bin/env python3.5
(assuming that the interpreter is on the user's :envvar:`PATH`) at the beginning
of the script and giving the file an executable mode. The ``#!`` must be the
>>> import os
>>> os.getcwd() # Return the current working directory
- 'C:\\Python34'
+ 'C:\\Python35'
>>> os.chdir('/server/accesslogs') # Change current working directory
>>> os.system('mkdir today') # Run the command mkdir in the system shell

A source-to-source translation tool, "2to3", can take care of the mundane task
of converting large amounts of source code. It is not a complete solution but
is complemented by the deprecation warnings in 2.6. See
