If I’m absolutely new to Python and am literally reading about printing statements to console, variable types, collections, etc:
What version of Python should I use?
I’m aware that there is an abundance of 3rd party libraries for Python 2.6.x, but I’m scared I’ll learn some things that won’t carry over well into Python 3.
For example, in Python 3 you can use input(), in Python 2 you have to use raw_input().
Thank you very much for the information.
Python 2.6 (and 2.5, 2.4) are what you will find installed on most machines (Linux) and what you will find most code written in. Therefore I’d start with Python 2.6.
