Unless you come from a programming background where floor behavior is expected for integers, it was strange.

In Python 2: 20 / 15 = 1

In Python 3: 20 / 15 = 1.3333333333333333

To get the old behavior a new operator was added "//"

In all fairness, the C/C++ and Java communities were and are quite substantial.

Of course the rest of us ought to expect 4/3 as the result of 20/15 ;-)
