Yes, that’s why no tool will replace Python 2 with Python 3, they’ll stop at the last Python 2. The nuances of Python 2 vs Python 3 would be another blog post so I probably shouldn’t have mentioned Python here. I’ve been bitten by that incompatibility myself. I wrote very little Python 2 code but sometimes still catch myself using Python 2 syntax in Python 3.

The two versions are not source-code compatible; many Python programs will break if you make that exchange. You can have both versions on your system.
