In November 2014, it was announced that Python 2.7 would be supported until 2020, and reaffirmed that there would be no 2.8 release as users were expected to move to Python 3.4+ as soon as possible
Python 3.0 - December 3, 2008 (细心的读者会发现,08年时就推出了3.0,2010年反而又推出了2.7?是因为3.0不向下兼容2.0,而很多公司已经基于2.0版本开发出了大量程序,公司已然投入了大量的人财物力,这就导致大家都拒绝升级3.0,无奈官方只能推出2.7过渡版本,之后我们都应该采用3.0解释器开发程序,但为了方便读者维护2.0版本的软件,我们在遇到两种版本的差异时会专门指出来)
