I brew-installed python on my mac, and put usr/local/bin before usr/bin in my PATH, but python --version still gives me Python 2.7.10 while I want my default version to be Python 3.6.4 (which is the answer to python3 --version, so it's definitely installed). Also, I can't find Python 3.6.4 in /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions, if I list the content of the folder it just gives me 2.3 2.5 2.6 2.7 Current. How do I change that without causing any problem to my computer?

  • What does `which -a python` say? – Mike Müller Mar 21 '18 at 11:36
  • `which -a python` will print all matching pathnames. If you are then sure it is in your path, you can check with `echo $PATH` if the python 3 version precedes the python 2. – Hielke Walinga Mar 21 '18 at 11:39
