Question

which version of python should I use?

Answer 1

Either version of python2. Python3 syntax is slightly different. You may use Python 2.7.3 without any problem (2.7.3 is the highest version of Python2) .

Answer 2

You can use python2 as python3 syntax is a bit different. For example print "text" becomes print("text").. raw_input is input.. however, python3 is just as fine. most of the syntaxes are still the same.

Answer 3

if you are going to use the -n.bat for plotting you will have to use v.2.6 on Windows. 2.7 gives magic number error
