Mac default python interpreter - Viewpoint8455 - Oct-12-2022
Hello,
I have a problem with my default python (interpreter) on my Mac.
When I type “which python” in the terminal, it shows: “/opt/anaconda3/bin/python”.
How can I change this so that again “/usr/local/bin/python3” is the default python interpreter?

symlink that directory to the other directory.

What will happen if you write
which python3? How to fix it depends on many factors - how did you install Python, it's different versions and distributions. What does your .bashrc/.bash_profile (or their .zhs counterparts) contain (aliases, paths etc).
