Color and Highlighting Make Code Easier to See The think that immediately gives IPython the edge over the standard Python interpreter is the use of color and syntax highlighting.

The new interpreter will run Python programs as much as 5% faster, with no changes to existing code required. A beta of Python 3.14 is due in May.

You're taking a new programming class this fall, and you don't know anything about code. Python is taught widely in schools, and it's one of the most loved programming languages because it's simple.

Official support for free-threaded Python, an experimental JIT, and a smarter installation manager for Windows are among the goodies in Python 3.14. Now in a release candidate.
