Meanwhile in the non-Luddite world of Python 3.

 >>> 10 > '10'
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: unorderable types: int() > str()
 >>> '10' > 10
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: unorderable types: str() > int()
