Well. Yeah, if you want to learn the shiniest new features, you’ll need the shiniest new references.

But for a new user, for whom Python is probably one of the first languages they learn, a 3.8 reference won’t give them much trouble for a while.

I say this as a novice Python user tho.

Has python changed that much for a new learner that a 3.8 tutorial is worthless in 3.13?

I don’t think so…there’s new features that wouldn’t be taught, but most everything from Hello World to decorators and lambdas were present in both.

Now, if you have a python 2 guide…yeah. That’s worthless. That shows its flaws during “Hello World”.

For the circuses.

No bread tho. You seen the cost of groceries lately?
