Version 3.11.0 of the Python language has been released. "In the CPython release team, we have put a lot of effort into making 3.11 the best version of Python possible. Better tracebacks, faster Python, exception groups and except*, typing improvements and much more."

And now for something completely different (was: Python 3.11 released)

It seems its tradition to randomly drop an unsolicited physics/mathematic information nugget in there, at least 3.10.0 had one too[0].

Has anybody any background on that, I mean, it is surely interesting, but to me, it came quite unexpected (never read a Python release announcement on discuss.python.org before). FWIW, their slightly more official looking blog post contains it too[1], so what's up with that?

The Python 3.10 and 3.11 release manager is a doctor in physics.

"And now for something completely different"

I rather like it and the heading is a complete give away. Certainly livens up the usual boring old change log and you can skip it with no loss of functionality.

It's also a reference to the Monty Python movie with the same title: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/And_Now_for_Something_Compl...

It takes a rocket scientist to release new Python

Something to do with the origins of Python's name maybe ?
