What about it?
If you enter the code above into the website it responds with: maybe the code is wrong?
It does not do that for me, the Python 3 version appears with no changes.

There are some corner cases that run fine in python but trip up 2to3 tools, including this web based one. This code for example:
print(set(x for x in range(2),))Re: Automated Python 2 to 3 code translation
#15I don't mean to be negative, but how is this better than just using the `2to3` tool that already ships with Python?
But this web-2to3 is monetised with ads. The python community didn't think of that.
They (the python community) doesn't require a library for left-padding. I don't think they will fall for this

I understand this is meant as a side-project for the author to learn new stuff. From his blog:
"It’s an online tool that I built for myself, and I hope other people can get some use out of it, I hav ported a lot of code in pyhon2 to python3 and I thouhgt thatthis web can help other people and also, it was a good oportunity for my, because I learned javascript and bootstrap for do it."

"asdf".encode("hex")
Is there a tool which knows to translate this to:
import binascii
binascii.b2a_hex(b"asdf")
import binascii
binascii.b2a_hex(s.encode("ascii") if isinstance(s, str) else s)Re: Automated Python 2 to 3 code translation

"asdf".encode("hex") Is there a tool which knows to translate this to: import binascii binascii.b2a_hex(b"asdf") Even worse, if the string isn't known to be a byte string or ASCII unicode string, it's something like: import binascii binascii.b2a_hex(s.encode("ascii") if isinstance(s, str) else s)
Sure...that's a different thing though. Python 3's choice to introduce new types and change behavior of existing types means no automated tool can really decide what to do.
The snippet I posted is a little different in that it runs on both Python 2 as well as 3, but the 2to3 tools choke on it.

Ahh, yes, you're right.
I'm still irritated by this specific case because my code and documentation used s.encode("hex") often, and it took a while to fix them all. Especially as the original code used both str and unicode hex-encoded values, so I couldn't drop in binascii. I ended up adding a C extension function.
