Python changes

2010-10-28 Thread Craig McRoberts
First off, greetings from a newbie!

Here's the deal. I gained a passable knowledge of Python nearly ten years ago. 
Then I decided a career in the computer sciences wasn't for me, and I let it 
go. Now I find myself back in the development arena, and I'd like to pick up 
Python again. How much has it changed in my ten years' absence? I've already 
resigned myself to starting over from the beginning, but are my books from that 
time period even worth using now?

Thanks so much.

Thanks for the prompt replies. Sounds like it's time to hit a bookstore.

Oh, I like to browse brick-and-mortar enough. But it's been forever since I've 
bought something there.
