python books

Is this book for python 3 or 2? There are a few footnotes that talk about differences between the two, but I can't figure out which one of them the actual code examples in the book are "compatible" with.

yeah, i don't know shit about programming.

I see.

In that case, it doesn't matter which version of Python you learn. The differences between 2 and 3 are minimal, and Python 3 adoption is still in its infancy.

If you learn 3, you might have to switch to 2 because of some library. But it'll be easy.

How To Think Like a CS seems like a good book for a beginner.
