I want to make the default version of python to 3.5 (its currently 3.6 in the Anaconda console). I don't want to create a virtual environment, as I want to run everything line by line rather than executing everything at once.

  • Wait, why don't you want to create a `conda` environment? If you are in the environment, you can run your code however you want. Just make a python 3.5 environment. This is what conda is *for*. – juanpa.arrivillaga Apr 13 '17 at 22:27
  • I don't want a conda environment because I want to execute each line individually. Unless there is a way to do this in the conda environment without having to run the entire script? – himi64 Apr 13 '17 at 22:30
  • ??? What? What do you mean? You mean use an interactive interpreter session? Or the Python debugger? In either case, both of those will use the Python interpreter of your current environment. – juanpa.arrivillaga Apr 13 '17 at 22:31
  • Sorry, I'm new to Python and still learning. What I'm trying to say is that in the normal python 3.6 console, I can highlight a line and just execute that, without having to execute the rest of the script. But in the virtual environment, I have to execute everything at once. – himi64 Apr 13 '17 at 22:39
  • What is a "normal python 3.6 console"? Are you using an IDE? – juanpa.arrivillaga Apr 13 '17 at 22:40
  • Yes, I'm using Spyder which automatically has python 3.6 in the console. – himi64 Apr 13 '17 at 22:41
  • So, Spyder isnt' the "normal python 3.6 console" – juanpa.arrivillaga Apr 13 '17 at 22:41
  • So, if you are in your Python 3.5 anaconda environment, in the terminal, just use `spyder` and it *should* use the Spyder with the right interpreter. – juanpa.arrivillaga Apr 13 '17 at 22:43
