 You can specify an arbitrary precision when encoding. The precision
 determines the number of characters in the Geohash::
 
-  >>> print 'Geohash for 42.6, -5.6:', Geohash.encode(42.6, -5.6, precision=5)
+  >>> print('Geohash for 42.6, -5.6:', Geohash.encode(42.6, -5.6, precision=5))
   Geohash for 42.6, -5.6: ezs42
 
 Decoding a Geohash returns a (latitude, longitude) tuple::
 
-  >>> print 'Coordinate for Geohash ezs42:', Geohash.decode('ezs42')
+  >>> print('Coordinate for Geohash ezs42:', Geohash.decode('ezs42'))
