Python 3 is not only stable, it has been stable since version 3.1 about 
five years ago. (Unfortunately, version 3.0 turned out to be broken and 
should never be used.) We're now up to Python 3.5, with 3.6 about to 
come out soon.

Python 2 comes with a script called "2to3" which will take a Python 2 
script and update it to Python 3:

Make sure you have backups!
