Python 3.9 released

([Development] Oct 5, 2020 20:48 UTC (Mon) (jake))


Version 3.9 of the Python programming language has been [1]released . The [2]changelog , " [3]What's New in Python 3.9 " document, and our [4]recent article have lots more information on the release. " Maintenance releases for the 3.9 series will follow at regular bi-monthly intervals starting in late November of 2020. OK, boring! Where is Python 4? Not so fast! The next release after 3.9 will be 3.10. It will be an incremental improvement over 3.9, just as 3.9 was over 3.8, and so on. "

The Tao doesn't take sides;
it gives birth to both wins and losses.
The Guru doesn't take sides;
she welcomes both hackers and lusers.

The Tao is like a stack:
the data changes but not the structure.
the more you use it, the deeper it becomes;
the more you talk of it, the less you understand.

Hold on to the root.
