A new RISCV backend, an updated REPL, faster and more complient with CPython. Give it a try. Works best on pure python codebases. PyPy really shines for simulations or other tasks with lots of python loops.

The biggest user-visible change of the release is new features in the repl of PyPy3.10. CPython 3.13 has adopted and extended PyPy's pure-Python repl, adding a number of features and fixing a number or bugs in the process.

It's always nice to see collaboration between CPython and PyPy.

Wait, so cpython 3.13 will use a repl written in python, but written in python 3.10, to execute 3.13 code?

I mean, most of the standard library is old. A lot of it is written in much older Python than 3.10.

Is python 3.10 support new with this release?

PyPy has supported 3.10 for a while now

The typo in the article title (which even now still says "PyPy v7.3.17: release of python 2.7 and 3.9") made me pause for a bit, wondering what happened to 3.10.
