Whats new in version 3.3.4:
- Core and Builtins:
- Issue #19255: The builtins module is restored to initial value before cleaning other modules. The sys and builtins modules are cleaned last.
- Issue #20588: Make Python-ast.c C89 compliant.
- Issue #20437: Fixed 22 potential bugs when deleting objects references.
- Issue #20500: Displaying an exception at interpreter shutdown no longer risks triggering an assertion failure in PyObject_Str.
- Issue #20538: UTF-7 incremental decoder produced inconsistent string when input was truncated in BASE64 section.
- Issue #20404: io.TextIOWrapper (and hence the open() builtin) now uses the internal codec marking system added for issue #19619 to throw LookupError for known non-text encodings at stream construction time. The existing output type checks remain in place to deal with unmarked third party codecs.
- Issue #17162: Add PyType_GetSlot.
- Issue #20162: Fix an alignment issue in the siphash24() hash function which caused a crash on PowerPC 64-bit (ppc64).

Publisher review:Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming language. It is often compared to Tcl, Perl, Scheme or Java.
Python is a tool that combines remarkable power with very clear syntax. It has modules, classes, exceptions, very high level dynamic data types, and dynamic typing.
There are interfaces to many system calls and libraries, as well as to various windowing systems (Mac, MFC, X11, Motif, Tk). New built-in modules are easily written in C or C++. It is also usable as an extension language for applications that need a programmable interface.
Operating system:Mac OS X 10.5 or later
