Python 3.11.3
Release Date: April 5, 2023
This is the third maintenance release of Python 3.11
Python 3.11.3 is the newest major release of the Python programming language, and it contains many new features and optimizations.
Major new features of the 3.11 series, compared to 3.10
Some of the new major new features and changes in Python 3.11 are:
General changes
- PEP 657 -- Include Fine-Grained Error Locations in Tracebacks
- PEP 654 -- Exception Groups and
except*
- PEP 680 -- tomllib: Support for Parsing TOML in the Standard Library
- gh-90908 -- Introduce task groups to asyncio
- gh-34627 -- Atomic grouping (
(?>...)
) and possessive quantifiers (*+, ++, ?+, {m,n}+
) are now supported in regular expressions. - The Faster CPython Project is already yielding some exciting results. Python 3.11 is up to 10-60% faster than Python 3.10. On average, we measured a 1.22x speedup on the standard benchmark suite. See Faster CPython for details.
Typing and typing language changes
- PEP 673 -- Self Type
- PEP 646 -- Variadic Generics
- PEP 675 -- Arbitrary Literal String Type
- PEP 655 -- Marking individual TypedDict items as required or potentially-missing
- PEP 681 -- Data Class Transforms

And now for something completely different
The Venturi effect is the reduction in fluid pressure that results when a fluid flows through a constricted section (or choke) of a pipe. The Venturi effect is named after its discoverer, the 18th-century Italian physicist Giovanni Battista Venturi.
In inviscid fluid dynamics, an incompressible fluid's velocity must increase as it passes through a constriction in accordance with the principle of mass continuity, while its static pressure must decrease in accordance with the principle of conservation of mechanical energy (Bernoulli's principle). Thus, any gain in kinetic energy a fluid may attain by its increased velocity through a constriction is balanced by a drop in pressure. By measuring pressure, the flow rate can be determined, as in various flow measurements devices such as Venturi meters, Venturi nozzles and orifice plates.
This effect can also be used to make cool experiments with hair dryers on the internet that you can show to someone very special while walking in the cold streets of a northern European city.
