i just installed python 3.10 on my computer (with Ubuntu OS) but when i do the $ python --version commend of my vscode shell it says that i am in 2.7.17, is there a commend to change it to 3.10 ?

vs code clearly says that my code is running in 3.10 as you can see , i don't understand

  • i tried the solution, it change the interpreter for the code, but not for the terminal @YoshiMbele – Armand Marcelli Jun 03 '22 at 09:47
  • Your PATH contains a directory which has an executable for Python 2.7. Do a `type -a python` before invoking `python` to learn more about it. – user1934428 Jun 03 '22 at 12:01

On ubuntu, python sometimes defaults to the 2.x version, while you have to explicitly write python3 to use the 3.x version

You could use Python IDE like Pycharm so it would be easier to specify python version to use project by project

  • I really like vs code and i dont want to use any other version than 3.10, i just want to have a 3.10 teminal, why is this so difficult ? – Armand Marcelli Jun 03 '22 at 10:06
