This may fall into the obvious answer. ~(:>))

My Python reference says that the xrange function was discontinued in
Python 3, which you are using.

"In Python 3.x, the original range() function is changed to return an
iterable instead of producing a result in memory, and thus subsumes
and [sic?] Python 2.x's xrange(), which is removed." -- Python Pocket
Reference, 5th ed., by Mark Lutz.
