### Interpreters
Versions 2.7, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6 and 3.7 of the CPython interpreter are available as
respectively `python27`, `python34`, `python35`, `python36` and `python37`. The PyPy interpreter
is available as `pypy`. The aliases `python2` and `python3` correspond to respectively `python27` and
`python37`. The default interpreter, `python`, maps to `python2`.
The Nix expressions for the interpreters can be found in
`pkgs/development/interpreters/python`.

### Deterministic builds
Python 2.7, 3.5 and 3.6 are now built deterministically and 3.4 mostly.
The Python interpreters are now built deterministically.
Minor modifications had to be made to the interpreters in order to generate
deterministic bytecode. This has security implications and is relevant for
those using Python in a `nix-shell`.
