I put all Projects aside, and spend two weeks reading this Starting Out with Python, 3rd edition - pdf - Free IT eBooks Download

You can convert scripts in python using 2to3 or backward using 3to2.
It is annoying to jump between projects as there are extensive programs written in python 2.* and will probably linger around until 2020+
Starting was a little slow but I actually really like python, better than I do PHP because it forces people to have certain conventions in their code with the indentation. Helps to use a good IDE like PyCharm too.
Starting out is the hardest part.
Nice thing about interpreted langauges like python or PHP is you can still run a program when one part of it may be broken on a webserver, a little more gratifying to the beginner or someone tinkering with the code.
Compiled languages, C, C++ have to be completely compiled each time and though I don't have experience with anything large that can take 5-10 minutes. Then you learn about testing etc.
