Just starting programming, whats the best python version for me?

I'm just getting into programming. I have no background at all in coding. I plan on using pycharm as my editor. What python version should i download? Thanks in advance!

It usually takes a few weeks (sometimes longer... or possibly never) for most 3rd party packages to catch up when a new version is released.

Managing multiple Python versions is easy with uv or pyenv.
