Is there any plans to upgrade python 3 to a newer version like 3.5?

Before the upgrade, maybe can we wait some time for the release of Python 3.6 which brings for example formatted string literals?

Also, an upgrade of Numpy would be nice. Codingame version is 1.8.2 while the last release is 1.11.2. I encountered unexpected slowdowns with some functions, so I guess the problem is with the version.

Why not 3.6 with one go?

and what about scipy:

import numpy as np
from scipy import ndimage
a = ndimage.measurements.label(np.eye(3))
print(a)

ImportError: /usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/scipy/special/_comb.cpython-35m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so: failed to map segment from shared object: Cannot allocate memory

Thank you for the upgrade (Y)

a few months later: any news on maybe upgrading to 3.6? Thanks

3.6 was released so long time ago. Weird that we do not have 3.6.

Hint: Wait ~2 months, and do 3.7 please.

Would be nice if Python was updated to 3.11.

There is no match case in current version of Python. Also, t strings would be nice too. :slight_smile:

It’s Python 3.11 already.

Then why don’t match cases work? When I type in a match clause, it underscores it with red saying match statements requrire Python version 3.10 or newer - Pylance.

You can still use match despite the error highlighting (the syntax checker is the part which is outdated).
