I have both python v2 and python v3 installed. When I just type in 'python' into a terminal screen I get v2. I need to enter 'python3' to get the newer version. I seem to remember that there is a way to make the 'python' instruction find the newer version automatically.
If you're on Ubuntu (or presumably another debian derivative) there's
the update-alternatives comand:
# update-alternatives --config python
That'll give you a list of the versions installed and let you select the default.
