When to Use Text or Data in Python 3.0
The difference between text and data is critical for programming in Python 3.0. Understanding this all-pervasive difference and how it relates to your programming will save you a lot of debugging time.
Python 3.0
Python 3.0 is the first version of Python to break backward compatability with all previous Python versions. No matter how you program, the language changes in 3.0 - whether in syntax or the library - make it highly unlikely that any substantial amount of 2.x code will run on Python 3.0. Here you can learn how Python 3.0 differs from the versions before it.
Print as a Function
With the release of Python 3.0, the number of projects that are built on a 3.x interpreter and that break compatibility with the 2.x series and before will only increase. The points of incompatiblity vary in importance, but your 2.x coding style is almost guaranteed to be incompatible on some level. Here is a series of helps to ease your transition into the world of Python 3.0.
