You read the original “Dive Into Python” and maybe even bought it on paper. (Thanks!) You already know Python 2 pretty well. You’re ready to take the plunge into Python 3. … If all of that is true, read on. (If none of that is true, you’d be better off starting at the beginning.)

Python 3 comes with a script called 2to3. Learn it. Love it. Use it. Porting Code to Python 3 with 2to3 is a reference of all the things that the 2to3 tool can fix automatically. Since a lot of those things are syntax changes, it’s a good starting point to learn about a lot of the syntax changes in Python 3. (print is now a function, `x` doesn’t work, &c.)
