Hi all~
My script can't work.I've changed my defaultencoding from 'ascii' to
'utf-8',but Python also raises a 'UnicodeEncodeError' error.

the error likes this:
s=u'La Pe\xf1a'
print s
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xf1' in position
5: ...

And in my script, there're many 'print' statements.So SOS~~~~
what should i do???

    La Pe?a

    ? or use smart_str from django ?

    By the way did you lift that example from Dive Into Python ?
