Hi Guys,

I am about to start learning python as a second programming language. I hear there are changes in python 3 so should i just start learning python 3 or get myself grounded in python 2.x first?

Thanks

Answer 1

I would say 2.x, as part of the great bits about python is the "Batteries included", which besides the standard library there is all the great PyPi libraries out there, many of which will take a while to get updated for 3.0
