How To Set Python Default Interpreter by rawdpiper(op): 9:49am On May 11, 2017*

I Run A Windows System, And I Have Both Installation Files Of Python 2.7 And 3.6. Coz I'll Be Using Python 3.6 Most Of The Time How Do I Set It Up In Such A Way That Python 3.6 Will Be Default Interpreter And Will Switch To Python 2.7 Anytime I Need It?

The folders are separate. Check Startup Menu. You should see 2.7 and 3.6 separate. The IDLEs are different to albeit similar in appearance.

I'll advise you use 3.6 since it supports commands from 2.7 but 2.7 does not support changes in 3.6.

You can also download PyScripter.

Why not stick to 3.6.. The G above me said it all.
