Python 3 primer, Part 1: What's new (IBM developerWorks)

[Posted February 3, 2009 by cook]

IBM developerWorks introduces Python 3 in the first of a multi-part series. "Python 3 is the latest version of Guido van Rossum's powerful general-purpose programming language. It breaks backwards compatibility with the 2.x line but has cleaned up some syntax issues. This article is the first in a series that talks about the changes that affect the language and backwards compatibility, and it provides examples of new features."
