+Everything in this course should work with the latest version of

 This course is for Python programmers who want to move beyond 
-short scripts to writing more sophisticated programs.  Topics
-focus on programming techniques that get used in popular libraries and
-frameworks. The primary goal is to better understand the Python language
-itself so that you can understand other people's code and so that you
