@ -101,9 +101,10 @@ Python's import machinery is extended to write and search for byte
code cache files in a single directory inside every Python package
directory. This directory will be called `__pycache__`.
Further, pyc files will contain a magic string that differentiates the
Python version they were compiled for. This allows multiple byte
compiled cache files to co-exist for a single Python source file.

differentiates the Python version they were compiled for. This allows
multiple byte compiled cache files to co-exist for a single Python
source file.
