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,
                                    unicode_string_literals)
            from future import *
            from future import standard_library_renames
        
        followed by clean Python 3 code (with a few restrictions) that can run
        unchanged on Python 2.7 or Python 3.3.
        
        The above * import is equivalent to:
        
            from future.common_iterators import zip, map, filter
            from future.features import range, super
            from future.disable_obsolete_builtins import (apply, cmp, coerce,
                    execfile, file, long, raw_input, reduce, reload, unicode,
                    xrange, StandardError)
            from future.str_is_unicode import str, python_2_unicode_compatible
        
        
        See the docstrings for each of these modules for more info:
        
            future.standard_library_renames
            future.common_iterators
            future.features
            future.disable_obsolete_builtins
            future.str_as_unicode
