Python 3 uses the `__next__` method instead of `next`,
and uses the syntax of `next(foo)` accordingly.
Add `__next__` and `next` side-by-side so both Python 2 and 3 have
a method that can be used during iteration.
Use the six module to import functions and types that are
consistent between Python 2 and 3, so that one code base can
support both versions.
- Use integer types instead of int and long.
- Use string_types instead of basestring.
- Account for iteritems, itervalues, iterkeys.
- Use six.moves for filter and zip, reduce
- Use compatible bytes for md5 hasher.
- xrange and range
Daily data should be using midnight as the timestamp,
ensure that test data created by data_gen use midnight, so that
upcoming implementations that rely on the timestamp will be compatible.
