Python version

[tanometro]

Hello dear Pythonfriend's,
i'm Tanometro.
I have problems with the python version. I recently installed the latest version of python on my Mac pro, with MacOS Catalina, but when y check in the terminal, it tells me that I have 2.7.16. I installed python 3.8 again, but the terminal gives me the same result.

That is ok?

I don't have a mac but if it works like some linuxes, you need to use the python3 command to have python 3 instead of python.

You can enter simple commands in your terminal:

which python
which python3
which python2

Now you know the paths of different Python versions.

Next you could find out version:

python --version
python3 --version
python2 --version

Now you should have sufficient information needed to start Python version required
