Find Python 2 First

I would like you to discover Python 2 first. We are just doing that to demonstrate to you best practices to get to Python 2 in your framework. You will do very nearly the same steps to get to form 3. You might likewise need to figure out how get to form 2.7 in future to work in this variant. Don't erase the default form on your PC this will result in a wide range of issues since a percentage of the Mac's default programming uses version 2.7 to run applications.

Python 3.6.0 (v3.6.0:41df79263a11, Dec 22 2016, 17:23:13) is this ok or do i need to reinstall pls

[einer]

guys can someone tell me what is the comand to set a specific version as a default version on macOS?

[voodoochili]

1.) So if both Python 2 and 3 are installed, do common packages like numby, scipy, and matplotlib have to be installed for each version? If yes, how would you do that - execute pip install commands within the desired version of python?
2.) How would the use of Jupyter notebooks be affected by having the two different versions of python?

Thanks

How can I get python3 to work on eclipse?

[chrisrigby]

This is a very easy to follow video - thanks. However, you don't mention one very important thing : will Python3 overwrite Python2 (in usr/bin) which the system needs, or does the installer put Python3 into usr/local/bin so you can have both as necessary?
