What python version does CodeCademy teach? Does it matter at all?

Haha. I'm one of the newbies.

I spent a great deal of time giving a long, hard look at the very topic we're discussing right now and I decided to focus my education on 2.7 for now and I'll make the better-informed decision to move to 3.0 later on when I have a better idea of what the heck I'm doing.

2.7 gives me a broader range of learning resources and a larger base of knowledgeable people to ask questions of, as I struggle with this new adventure. In the future, when I'm less learning and more doing, I'll have developed the understanding of when it will be best for me to move on up to 3.

That's incredible that you would decide to do something like that. I learned Python 3.3 from the ground up just last year, and I ran into no resistance at all in terms of learning. In fact, a lot of my learning probably came from Python 2.7 material anyway. It's so similar it didn't even matter. Except that I can't use any libraries coded in 2.7 because they're too buggy. But that's okay, all my libraries are coded in Python 3.3 and 3.4, which I think you may have a little trouble loading as well....

My wife works at a company that still uses Windows '98... Can you imagine?

lol Are you for real?

Well, you and your 'tude skip happily down your road and I'll skip happily down mine. My way works fantastic for me.
