Python would be my favorite language if I could get my head around the differences between the two versions. Also I want to know what they will do when 2.x gets into the same numbering as 3.x was in?

Start with 3.x in the first place

@sam9669 not when the Aws example I am working from is only 6 or so months old and in 2.7

I'll consideer python as programming language when it will be like a programming language. You can't fuck up your code to tweak a damned do-while construct.

The important differences in 3.x are:
- unicode strings work automagically
- print() is a function, not a statement
- the super() function is no longer stupid
- comparing/ordering things makes sense
- integer division has to be explicit (//)

And 2.7 is the "last major release". The version number will never increase.
