Yo DJ

I believe that the new ARC can be programed in Python?
In doing some research, to try and learn a little, I found out that it comes now in two versions (2 & 3) which are not fully compatible?
Is that right?
If so, which should one use?

Thanks

ARC uses Python 2: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1093322/how-do-i-check-what-version-of-python-is-running-my-script

Also note, JavaScript is much faster than Python if you're looking at performance.

Hey Ted, how are you? Nice to see you are still around. We need more smart people on the forum. Anyway, Java is pretty straight forward. I find the best way to learn is to write scripts in Blockly, convert them to Javascript and then tweak from there...

Cheers man
