Oh, and our best python coders do not like 3 - I'm more of a lua/c person myself so for me only the first point is important.
- voltagex_ 12y agoI'd be interested to know what they don't like about Python 3.
- Walkman 12y agoIf You skim through Armin Ronacher blog [1] and you will find out pretty soon :) Also there is a Q&A for Python 2 vs 3 by Nick Coghlan. [2] Basically Python 3 makes it much-much harder working with legacy POSIX system and web frameworks where you need to do a bunch of unicode <--> bytes encoding dance seemingly unnecessary.

- malkia 12y agoMost obviously - things that would no longer work in 3, that used to work in 2 - if that was not a problem, then it would've been an issue to switch (and the performance is not worse than 2). But I guess it's not that easy. Also the "C" api must be backward-compatible.
