Previous and future versions of Python are available via the AUR, and may be useful for old applications that do not run on the current version, for programs intended to run on other versions, or just for curiosity: Finally, Python is portable: it runs on many Unix variants including Linux and macOS, and on Windows. It is also usable as an extension language for applications that need a programmable interface. It has interfaces to many system calls and libraries, as well as to various window systems, and is extensible in C or C++. Python combines remarkable power with very clear syntax. It supports multiple programming paradigms beyond object-oriented programming, such as procedural and functional programming. It incorporates modules, exceptions, dynamic typing, very high level dynamic data types, and classes.
