PYTHON 2.X vs PYTHON 3.X | GETTING STARTED WITH PYTHON #TechBlog
Python 3 enables many powerful features to be added to the python programming language at run time to support the python 2 code .
While working with Python 2 we will be using exe pip , exe python , exe ipython , sometimes we will also see pip2 , python2 , ipython2.
In Python 3, we will be using the same executables but with the version reflected in the executable name (pip3,python3,ipython3) .
Python 3 is a version of choice and python 2 is legacy.
Python 2 is officially considered as its end of life now. There might be a couple of reasons to use Python 2 , one of them is some of the libraries that aren’t compatible with python 3 but now lots of packages and software to upgrade the python 3 are introduced and this problem is becoming less and less with each passing months. So the easiest way is to use python 3.
Your default first choice is Python 3.
