How to check version of python modules?

Question

I just installed the python modules: construct and statlib with setuptools like this:

# Install setuptools to be able to download the following

sudo apt-get install python-setuptools

# Install statlib for lightweight statistical tools

sudo easy_install statlib

# Install construct for packing/unpacking binary data

sudo easy_install construct

I want to be able to (programmatically) check their versions. Is there an equivalent to python --version I can run from the command line?

My python version is 2.7.3.
