(more) problems with python3

Trying the following code from the documentation under python3 (on Windows) gives me multiple errors:

data = sav.SavReader(spss_file, returnHeader=True, ioUtf8=True, ioLocale="german")
# directly setting 'ioLocale' to, e.g., 'de_DE.cp1252' yields an error
with data:
    allData = data.all()
    print(str(data))
    print(data[2, 3])
allData = np.array(allData)

First, when Setting ioLocale=None or ioLocale="de_DE.cp1252", I get the following error:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

      1 #spss_file = os.path.join(r"C:\Users\RitschelG\Projekte\SPSS-Test", r"KOPIE_Rep22_Analysedatei.SAV")
      2

      4 # directly setting 'ioLocale' to, e.g., 'de_DE.cp1252' yields an error
      5 with data:

C:\Users\AppData\Local\Continuum\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\savReaderWriter\savReader.py in __init__(self, savFileName, returnHeader, recodeSysmisTo, verbose, selectVars, idVar, rawMode, ioUtf8, ioLocale)
     55         """ Constructor. Initializes all vars that can be recycled """
     56         super(SavReader, self).__init__(savFileName, b"rb", None,
---> 57                                         ioUtf8, ioLocale)
     58         self.savFileName = savFileName
     59         self.returnHeader = returnHeader

---> 31         super(Header, self).__init__(savFileName, ioUtf8, ioLocale)
     32         self.spssio = self.loadLibrary()
     33         self.libc = cdll.LoadLibrary(ctypes.util.find_library("c"))

C:\Users\AppData\Local\Continuum\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\savReaderWriter\generic.py in __init__(self, savFileName, ioUtf8, ioLocale)
     37         if not self.encoding_and_locale_set:
     38             self.encoding_and_locale_set = True
---> 39             self.ioLocale = ioLocale
     40             self.ioUtf8 = ioUtf8
     41 

C:\Users\AppData\Local\Continuum\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\savReaderWriter\generic.py in ioLocale(self, localeName)
    388         self.setLocale = func(c_int(locale.LC_ALL), c_char_py3k(localeName))
    389         if self.setLocale is None:
--> 390             raise ValueError("Invalid ioLocale: %r" % localeName)
    391         return self.setLocale
    392 

ValueError: Invalid ioLocale: 'de_DE.cp1252'

Setting ioLocale="german" seems to work, however.

Second, the print statement in the above code (from the documentation) yields

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

      6     allData = data.all()
----> 7     print(str(data))
      8     #print(data[2, 3])
      9 allData = np.array(allData)

    134         """This function returns a conscise file report of the spss data file,
    135         For example unicode(SavReader(savFileName))"""
--> 136         return self.getFileReport()
    137 
    138     @property

C:\Users\AppData\Local\Continuum\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\savReaderWriter\savReader.py in getFileReport(self)
    483         for cnt, varName in enumerate(self.varNames):
    484             lbl = "string" if self.varTypes[varName] > 0 else "numerical"
--> 485             format_ = self.formats[varName].decode(self.fileEncoding)
    486             varName = varName.decode(self.fileEncoding)
    487             varlist.append(line % (cnt + 1, varName, format_, lbl))

AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'decode'

The obvious reason is that in python3 there is no method decode for strings, anymore.

Third, the numpy type data access to the array also Fails with the error:

----> 8     print(data[2, 3])
      9 allData = np.array(allData)

    249         elif is_array_slice:
--> 250             return self._get_array_slice(key, self.nCases, len(self.header))
    251         else:
    252             key = operator.index(key)

C:\Users\AppData\Local\Continuum\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\savReaderWriter\savReader.py in _get_array_slice(self, key, nRows, nCols)
    340         result = numpy.array(list(records))[key].tolist()
    341         if abs(key[1].start - key[1].stop) == 1:
--> 342             return reduce(list.__add__, result) # flatten list if it's one col
    343         if is_index:
    344             return result[0]

NameError: name 'reduce' is not defined

The obvious reason: In python3 there is no builtin function reduce, anymore.
