I am new to python programming language and I saw that there are two versions python2 and python3. Which one should I start learning ? Should I learn python2 first and then switch to python 3? I am asking this question here as maiman3 has switched to python3 , but some other projects still stick to python2, so I am kind of confused which version to start with.
Definitely start with Python 3.
There is still much legacy Python 2 code, and many projects have a hard time porting to Python 3 because of dependencies on other packages which are still Python 2, but the future is Python 3, and any new code is best as Python 3.
The only reason to learn Python 2 at this point is if you are tasked with supporting a legacy Python 2 project.
