version = '5.0'

# Version 5.0:
#
# Rewrite to support multiple different data sources due to disappearance
# of the Yahoo feed.  Includes support for base currency selection. 
#
# Version 4.3: 20 July 2018
#
# Validate rate data from server
#
# Version 4.2: 18 April 2018
#
# Handle case of empty/malformed entry returned from the server
#
# Version 4.1: 30 October 2017
#
# Fixed to include USD in the list of currency codes.  
#
# Version 4: 2 October 2017 
#
# Complete rewrite to use Yahoo YQL API due to removal of TimeGenie RSS feed.
# Switched to requests library using JSON.  One program now runs under
# Python 2 or Python 3.  Thanks to Ray Hamel for some help with this update.
