Which interpreter is the right one to use for the following code in an executable file named polyglot:

#!/usr/bin/python

print("2/3 = {}".format(2/3))

Will the output remain the same if one system decides to run it with a Python 2 interpreter and another runs it with a Python 3 interpreter?

Adding from __future__ import division will print a fractional result in both Python 2 and Python 3.

Changing / --> // will print zero in both Python 2 and Python 3.
