I'm not a python expert, probably not even a novice, but I can cut and paste like a pro I'm attempting to teach myself python, at least enough to be able to read it and understand the modul8 manual (which i should re-read) . I was sifting through some modules and saw some syntax that I haven't seen before and then I started wondering, is this python 2.7.2 or python3? I thought about homebrewing in python3 but I wanted to ask if it'll will mess up anything in modul8 if I have both versions of python running? Also, is there an advantage to having python3 installed or am I good with 2.7.2?
Also, import, how do i see a list of things i can import? I see math, copy, urllib, random, time, os, datetime, webbrowser, etc. in other peoples modules, where are you guys finding these.
After said import, there's usually a 'from (x) import (y)' y being parameters of x. How do I view those options as well? I'm guessing maybe the libraries are plentiful and it's better to know what you're looking for than to see a list of all the libraries? I think I read somewhere that python has a library for just about everything so let me know if i'm wasting my time.
Not sure if this is the best forum for python questions but I only care to learn python for use with modul8 so I figured...
