Hi I have a question regarding python, I have been meaning to study the language for sometime now just have not got around to it, Im looking to start soon but I read an article about how Python 3.0 is very different from the earlier versions. Will it be worth studying the earlier build or should I wait for 3.0 before starting?

Jump to PostI'm not sure that python 3.0 will be so different from the previous versions from the point of vue of the end user. You can already try python 2.6 wich was written as to incorporate many new features of python 3.0. Read the what's new at
Jump to PostYes, studying Python 3.0 or an earlier version (apart from 2.6) will not really make much difference to you. The fundamental changes are really hidden in the advanced features mostly (besides integer division and class creation I believe).
If you start with 2.5, you'll still have all the basics …
