how to run python on linux

Linux has the Python program installed by default

Currently, most Linux distributions have two versions of the Python program installed

One is Python 2.x

The other is Python 3.x

Some system built-in program files require the support of Python 2, and Python 3 is the general trend

So , we’d better not touch the system’s Python version

Just declare which version you need to use directly

How to run Python:

We open the terminal on the Linux system

Enter python

The version and interpreter of Python 2 will pop up

Enter python3

The version of Python 3 will pop up Version and interpreter

So we generally enter the command to run the python 2 program

python program file

To run the python 3 program enter the command

python3 Program File

Here we use the default version of Python 3

Enter the command in the terminal

Python3

The pop-up Python interpreter starts with >>>

We can enter the Python program on it

It will directly output the result

For example:

We input 32 46 here, the output result is 78

Input print('hello python'), the output result is hello python

Note: When we run the .py file, the 32 46 will not be printed directly

You must add the print command

print(32 46)

We exit the python3 interpreter The shortcut key is not Ctrl C

but Ctrl Z
