@ -41,14 +41,14 @@ Below is an example output for Python version 3.8.5.
>>>
.. warning:: Python 2 support is deprecated
.. warning::
While the LAMMPS Python module was originally developed to support
both, Python 2 and 3, any new code is only tested with Python 3.
Please note that Python 2 is no longer maintained as of `January 1,
2020 <https://www.python.org/doc/sunset-python-2/>`_. Therefore, we
highly recommend using Python version 3.6 or later. Compatibility to
Python 2 will be removed eventually.
The options described in this section of the manual for using Python with
LAMMPS currently support either Python 2 or 3. Specifically version 2.7 or
later and 3.6 or later. Since the Python community no longer maintains Python
2 (see `this notice <https://www.python.org/doc/sunset-python-2/>`_), we
recommend use of Python 3 with LAMMPS. While Python 2 code should continue to
work, that is not something we can guarantee long-term.
