using pudb on python2 code - ErnestTBass - Aug-10-2020

I have removed pudb for python 3.7.3 from my pc windows install. A previous post informed me that the code that I was trying to run was python 2.7 code.

Okay.

I now have python 3.7.3 installed on my Windows 10 Pro system. I would
like to install python 2.7. Must I remove python 3.7.3 to do so?

When I installed pudb on my windows system this morning, did it install pudb3
since only python 3.7.3 is installed?

Is pudb specific to a python version, ie. pudb2 and pudb3? How to do install pudb
so it only uses or works with python 2.7.3.

Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Respectfully,

ErnestTBass

Python2 is very old and is no longer being updated. All python code should be upgraded to python3. Most code is pretty easy to move. There are even tools (2to3) that can help with some of the steps.

You can install python2 on windows. There is no need to remove python3. However, sometimes getting everything set so that the version you want to run is invoked can be tricky.
