python3 compatibility

[Talv]

Any plans for supporting python3?

Also, there's some inconsistency about the indention in Adafruit_ADS1x15.py (and not only). Spaces are mixed with tabs. Even incorectly, as there's one tab for 4 spaces, while the file indention is 2 spaces. As seen on the picture:

That's perhaps topic for another issue but it bothers me much while converting it to py3.

Seconded, it's easy to write python3 style code that's still compatible with python2.x. Can developers please add parentheses to their print statements and kill the commas on their exceptions?
Here's a cheat sheet:

also, install anaconda for sublime - it'll tell you off if your python code is less than perfect.

+1 a simple search in Github https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit-Raspberry-Pi-Python-Code/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=print helps to find these kind of python 3 incompatibilities

An other way to do it is to install flake8-print https://github.com/jbkahn/flake8-print

here is an example (main.py):

print "statement"

print("function")

With Python 2

$ flake8 main.py
main.py:1:1: T001 print statement found.
main.py:3:1: T001 print function found.

With Python 3

$ flake8 main.py
main.py:1:18: E901 SyntaxError: invalid syntax

@tdicola has a Plan to do a major cleanup of this creaky repo including pep8, py3, and pypi...its quite a pppparty :)
