I am learning Python, and using PyQt to develop a GUI that will be used to run a Fortran program on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X (I think Python is great, btw). Without thinking about it I downloaded and started working with a fairly recent Python version, 2.5.4. I've now become aware of the existence of Python 3.1, which apparently is a major revision of the language. Does it make sense to stick with Python 2.x at this point, or should I be starting off with 3.1?
Stick with 2.x.
If it is recommended to stick with version 2, should I use the latest (2.6.4 or 2.7), and if so why? Thanks.
2.6.4 definitely (as 2.7 final is not released yet). Also see: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/170921 -srid -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
