The article does not make it immediately obvious what language version the original made-in-2008 product was written in. Python 2.7 was not released until two years later, in summer 2010.
- vegesm 6y agoIt seems it is Python. The author specifically mentions an upgrade to Python 2.7
- daneel_w 6y agoI suppose <2.7 then. I was thrown off by "...every good thing must come to an end; Python 2.7 was going end of life.", implying that the product was written for 2.7 and was hence facing its deprecation problem.
- enjo 6y agoPython 2.7 was the last of the Python 2.x releases. They likely started with an earlier version, kept upgrading to 2.7 and then had to bite the bullet and actually rework it for Python 3.x (which is a highly similar but different programming language). Which is why that quote makes sense.
