First of all, you can read these write-ups from past GSoC students to get an idea about what you can do for the project. [Chipe1](https://github.com/aimacode/aima-python/issues/641) - [MrDupin](https://github.com/aimacode/aima-python/issues/632)

## Port to Python 3; Pythonic Idioms

- Check for common problems in [porting to Python 3](http://python3porting.com/problems.html), such as: `print` is now a function; `range` and `map` and other functions no longer produce `list`s; objects of different types can no longer be compared with `<`; strings are now Unicode; it would be nice to move `%` string formatting to `.format`; there is a new `next` function for generators; integer division now returns a float; we can now use set literals.

- Replace old Lisp-based idioms with proper Python idioms. For example, we have many functions that were taken directly from Common Lisp, such as the `every` function: `every(callable, items)` returns true if every element of `items` is callable. This is good Lisp style, but good Python style would be to use `all` and a generator expression: `all(callable(f) for f in items)`. Eventually, fix all calls to these legacy Lisp functions and then remove the functions.
