Description: 
        The ``future`` module helps run Python 3.x-compatible code under Python 2.
        
        It allows people to write clean, modern Python 3.x-compatible code today
        and to run it with minimal effort under Python 2 alongside a Python 2
        stack that may contain dependencies that have not yet been ported to
        Python 3.
        
        It is designed to be used as follows:
        
            from __future__ import division, absolute_import, print_function
            from future import (common_iterators, disable_obsolete_builtins,
                                str_as_unicode)
            from future.features import super, range
        
        followed by clean Python 3 code (with a few restrictions) that can run
        unchanged on Python 2.7 or Python 3.3.
        
        Soon we may also support this:
        
            from future import standard_library
        
        to bring in the new module names from the Python 3 standard library, so
        imports like this will work on either Python 2.7 or Python 3.3:
        
            import builtins
            import configparser
            import queue
            # etc.: see standard_library_renames module for more info.
