Atom editor issue with python 3 - johnmick - Jan-25-2019

Hello i have just started to learn python and i have installed atom editor for it. The problem is the atom editor is running python 2.7 but i have installed python 3.7 and when i check in command prompt it shows the python version 3.7 but in atom editor it still runs 2.7, i have tried the script method for atom but the issue remains how can i permanently run python 3 in atom editor?

Which package are you using? My Atom isn't set up to run Python code but it does have autocomplete-python 1.11.0 which has been updated for 3.6/3.7.

My advice is that you change to VS Code,is has much better Python support.
VS Code from start.
As a note so did i use Atom before.
