Man I hate this argument so much.

People make it look like those are two completely different languages, even though there are actually very minor differences. You'll realize it once you'll start using python 3. Also py3 is much easier to master for a novice because it is much more consistent and no longer has some special cases.

For example if you're dividing a number you no longer need to convert one variable to be float in order to get a decimal. There is no int and long types, just int etc.
