Hey everyone, I'm Kenneth,
the Python teacher here at Treehouse.
0:04
Now in all of our courses,
we're using Python 3.5,
0:07
because until December 2016 that
was the newest version of Python.
0:10
Just before the new year though,
3.6 was released and
0:15
brought with it a few really nice updates.
0:17
This workshop is going to be different
from most of the others you've
0:20
watched here.
0:22
There won't really be any code for
0:22
you to write except to try
out the features with me.
0:24
If you just wanna sit back and
see what these updates are, go for it.
0:26
As you can probably imagine,
0:30
a new version of Python brings
quite a few new features and fixes.
0:31
I won't be covering everything in the
update, but I've linked the release notes
0:34
in the teacher's notes if you want to see
absolutely everything that's included.
0:37
Consider this workshop to be
the highest of highlights.
0:40
So stick around and find out about
formatted string literals, underscores and
0:43
numbers, variable annotations, and more.
