Usage of ast.

[Vincent Vande Vyvre]

I've this strange error:

Python 3.4.3 (default, Nov 17 2016, 01:08:31)
[GCC 4.8.4] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
 >>> import ast
 >>> l = "print('hello world')"
 >>> ast.literal_eval(l)
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
   File "/usr/lib/python3.4/ast.py", line 84, in literal_eval
     return _convert(node_or_string)
   File "/usr/lib/python3.4/ast.py", line 83, in _convert
     raise ValueError('malformed node or string: ' + repr(node))
ValueError: malformed node or string: <_ast.Call object at 0x7fcf955871d0>


Is it an import question ?
