<p>Short version: Although most Python code is written for Python
<h3>Short summary</h3>

<p>Although most Python code is currently written for Python
2.x, Python 3.x is the present and future of the language.</p>

<p>At the time of writing (Sept 28, 2011), the final 2.7 release
is out, with a statement of extended support for this end-of-life
release. The 2.x branch will see no new major releases after that.
3.x is under active development and has already seen stable
releases, such as the recent 3.2. This means that all recent
standard library improvements, for example, are only available
in Python 3.x.</p>
<p>Python 2.7.3 was released in April 2012.
The 2.x branch will have no further major releases,
though this end-of-life release will have an extended period of bug
and security fixes.

<p>Python 3.x continues to be actively developed and has already seen stable
releases. The most recent is Python 3.3, released in September
2012. This means that all recent standard library improvements, for
example, are only available in Python 3.x.</p>

<h3>Detailed discussion</h3>

<p>Guido van Rossum (the original creator of the Python language),
in conjunction with other python-core developers decided to
clean up Python 2.x properly, with less regard for backwards
compatibility than is the case for new releases in the 2.x range.
The most drastic improvement is the better unicode support (with
all text strings being unicode by default) as well as saner
in conjunction with other python-core developers decided to use Python 3.x to
clean up Python 2.x. Python 2.x releases were careful to preserve backwards
compatibility with older versions, but Python 3.x was freed of this requirement.
The most drastic improvement is better Unicode support (with
all text strings being Unicode by default) as well as saner
bytes/unicode separation.</p>

<p>Besides, several aspects of the core language (such as print
and exec being statements, integers using floor division) have been
<p>Several other aspects of the core language (such as <code>print</code>
and <code>exec</code> being statements, integers using floor division) were
adjusted to be easier for newcomers to learn and to be more consistent
with the rest of the language, and old cruft has been removed (for
example, all classes are now new-style, range() returns a memory
efficient iterable, not a list as in 2.x).</p>
