set python default 3.0

[tdwinfre]

I have python 3.0 the latest version but when I type python in my shell it says 2.7. How do I set python 3.0 in my shell as my default version

What will happen if you write python3?

The best way to do this is to use pyenv, see: https://python-forum.io/Thread-pyenv-Sim...Management

Otherwise you will need to set up environment variables.
This is best done during installation, so I'd suggest uninstalling python and reinstalling.
Messing with environment variables can be dangerous unless you are sure you know how to do it safely.

depends on your OS see: https://python-forum.io/Forum-Python-Ins...-Execution
Select tutorial for your OS (use snippsat's threads)
