Many of us still use Python 2.x and CPython-and that is still often a good choice-but there are many situations in which making a different choice makes sense. Python developers have numerous versions and implementations to choose from. Guido van Rossum’s P圜on 2014 keynote address (photo credit: David Lesieur 2014, CC-BY-SA) That said, new Python versions inevitably add important features, either in the language itself, its built-in functions, or in standard library support modules. It is extremely rare for a series to break this backward compatibility in later minor versions in the few cases where it has occurred, it is only to address large previously undiscovered bugs or security issues, and even then great attention is paid to affecting as little running code as possible. Within a series, Python places an especially strong philosophical emphasis on backward compatibility (in comparison to many other programming languages).
