# It is tempting to add an __int__ method to this class, but it's not
# a good idea.  This class tries to gracefully handle integer
# overflow, and to hide this detail from both the programmer and the
# user.  Note that the __str__ method can be relied on for printing out
# the value of a counter:
#
# >>> print 'Total Client: %s' % self.total_clients
#
# If you need to do arithmetic with the value, then use the 'as_long'
# method, the use of long arithmetic is a reminder that the counter
# will overflow.

The variable long does not seem to be defined.

        return self.value != 0

    def __repr__ (self):
        return '<counter value=%s at %x>' % (self.value, id(self))

    def __str__ (self):
        return str(long(self.value))

The variable long does not seem to be defined.
