Then - if you use Python2.2 - you have the opportunity now
to extend your knowledge.
Start IDLE with something like this:
C:\Python22\pythonw.exe -Qnew "C:\Python22\Tools\idle\idle.pyw"
Then at the IDLE-prompt write 3/4 and you will see the following result:
Python 2.2 (#28, Dec 21 2001, 12:21:22) [MSC 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
IDLE 0.8 -- press F1 for help
>>> 3/4
0.75
>>>
So you see IDLE at work with division from __future__
