How do I uninstall python 2.7.10 on Ubuntu 20.04

Question

I installed python 2.7.10 by following this tutorial: https://letmespeakweb.wordpress.com/2016/08/15/how-to-install-python-2-7-10-on-ubuntu-16-04/

And now I don't know how to uninstall. I tried purge but it didn't work.

Looking into the issue quickly, I found an answer to a similar issue. Have you already seen this?

Also, based on what I've seen online so far, it might be best to leave it alone. Granted, I don't know why you need to uninstall, so please take my suggestions with a grain of salt. I'm certainly no expert with this kind of thing. I'll add to this answer as I find more information. Good luck!
