Ah .. NO! I can assure you that we are still stuck with Python 2.x (2.7 to be more precise). I am not too sure the others would have moved either.
- takluyver 14y agoThere is movement, though - lots of the core stuff is already ported to Python 3, and once matplotlib 1.2 comes out (any day now), it's quite feasible to do serious work with Python 3.
- ak217 14y agoCan you list the reasons?
- denzil_correa 14y agoI deal with a lot of text data so I use NLTK for Natural Language Processing. In addition, maptplot lib for publication quality figures and graphs. I don't really have a motivation to shift to Python 3.
