Using Python 3 to learn Python! :-)

Seriously, You would be better downgrading to Python 2.6 to learn because v3 has introduced several new concepts (not just print() ) that are not covered in most tutorials. Once you understand Python 2.6 you will be in a better position to understamd v3s new features, and probably by then most tutorials will have caught up.
