 ### On Unix
 
-   * `Python v2.7 or v3.7` (v3.5 and 3.6 may work but are not currently tested)
+   * `Python v2.7, v3.5, v3.6, or v3.7`
    * `make`
    * A proper C/C++ compiler toolchain, like [GCC](https://gcc.gnu.org)

    * [Xcode](https://developer.apple.com/xcode/download/)
      * You also need to install the `XCode Command Line Tools` by running `xcode-select --install`. Alternatively, if you already have the full Xcode installed, you can find them under the menu `Xcode -> Open Developer Tool -> More Developer Tools...`. This step will install `clang`, `clang++`, and `make`.
