Probably because Python 3 treats many lists as iterators by default and Python 2 doesn't.

Hm, I don't quite understand!? As far as I know, lists are iteratable in both Python 2 and 3. The only difference I could think if is range where range in Python 3 is like xrange in Python 2. In contrast to Python 2's range, the Python 3 range doesn't create a list but is rather like a generator ...
Or that next in Python 2 is a method rather than a function such as in Python 3. Anyway, seems that you already fixed that :).

I suppose I meant that the resulting lists from functions like filter() are returned as iterators. lists themselves are treated the same of course.
