Which is the latest version of Python for Windows? What's the difference between Python 2 and Python 3??

Answer 1

Python 2.7 is most stable at the moment. Some modules don't work on newer versions for instance kivy doesn't work on python 3.5 but will work on python 2.7
Personally i use both Python 2.7 and 3.5

Answer 2

Use Python 3 whenever you can : all new features are going to Python 3. For instance, the 3.6 beta was released recently : you have a new module for added cryptographic security, a new implementation of dictionaries, etc.

Somme brilliant features, and some more... useless (as in the addition of math.tau...)

Answer 3

If you are new to Python, you might be confused about the different versions that are available. Although Python 3 is the latest generation of the language, many programmers still use Python 2.7, the final update to Python 2, which was released in 2010.

There is currently no clear-cut answer to the question of which version of Python you should use; the decision depends on what you want to achieve. While Python 3 is clearly the future of the language, some programmers choose to remain with Python 2.7 because some older libraries and packages only work in Python 2

Answer 4

I would consider to stay on 2.7 for some time. My linux system fully supports 2.7, so its more suitable for me now.
