Re: Why Python 3?

If you are starting a new project, I'd highly encourage you to use Python 3. It is a stable, well supported, and beautiful language, and gives you the full power of the innovation that is current in the Python world. Python 2 is still well supported (for a while to come), but you won't have the sam

Why Python 3?

Hello Everyone, So I've been working with Python for a while and I'm starting to take on more and more serious projects with it. I've been reading a lot about Python 2 vs Python 3 and the community kind of seems split on which should be used. Some say 'Python 3 is the future, use it for everythin

module and namespace

I have a problem with a namespace. There is a module mptt (actally from Django). If I import this module with the interpreter it tells me the namespace: Python 3.3.5 (default, Apr 12 2014, 23:34:20) [GCC 4.6.3] on linux Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> imp

TeX $\times$ symbol not working in matplotlib?

Hi, I am trying to understand how to get the TeX "\times" symbol to work. It is in the title() string in the code I pasted in. The "\circ" symbol seems fine, by comparison. "\times" ends up as "imes" in the figure title. I am probably doing something dumb (hey, maybe a lot of dumb things!),
