Presumably because Python 3 switched to wordcode. Applying dis.dis() to these code objects results in the same output.
dis.dis(c) 0 LOAD_NAME 0 (0) 3 RETURN_VALUE

I have encountered the following difference between Python 3 and 2:
(py3)
compile('xxx', '<>', 'eval').co_code b'e\x00S\x00'
(py2)
compile('xxx', '<>', 'eval').co_code 'e\x00\x00S'
Note that 'S' (the code for RETURN_VALUE) and a zero byte are swapped in Python 2 compared to Python 3. Is this change documented somewhere? _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/ guido%40python.org
