Most of my Python was related to Esri's ArcGIS version. Up until a few 
years ago installing their product would install Python 2.7. With Esri 11, 
they moved to Python 3. Modifying my scripts wasn't difficult but I 
thought I should expand my Python knowledge. There were quite a few 
features like list comprehensions I'd never used. I also appreciated f 
strings when they were introduced, the walrus operator, and other 
enhancements.

Another part of my renewed interest was the advent of many 
microcontrollers capable of running MicroPython, which is a subset of 
Python 3.x.
