Controversy

Does a slow section of a library which has been since fixed really need to be called a controversy? I could understand if it was found to be done intentionally or something, but come on.138.87.141.17 (talk) 02:39, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Facts that should be in the Article

detailed comparison of v2->v3 changes?

It would sure be nice to have a detailed comparison (e.g., a table) of changes from Python v2 to v3. I'm brand new to Python, and am finding that some things stated in some tutorials are untrue. I don't know enough about Python to know whether they're just plain wrong, or whether the "truth" changed from v2 to v3. (For example, one tutor states that a variable used to loop through a 'for' loop has as its scope ONLY the 'for' loop; in v3, this is certainly not true [because the looping variable's value can still be accessed after the for loop is completed]. Was it true in v2, and just changed in v3? I don't know. Would sure be nice for someone who knows these things to put a table here (or at least a reference to someone else's table) that details differences between v2 and v3. Thanks in advance to anyone who implements this! Aloha, philiptdotcom (talk) 03:38, 14 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
