I prefer tuples, as sys.version_info, because the comparaison is more natural: >>> '2.6.9' > '2.6.20' True >>> (2, 6, 9) > (2, 6, 20) False

How do you compare version strings? I prefer tuples, as sys.version_info, because the comparaison is more natural:
>>> '2.6.9' > '2.6.20'
True
>>> (2, 6, 9) > (2, 6, 20)
False
