What Version of Python Is Installed Ubuntu?

Which version of Python is installed Ubuntu?

You can use python -V (et al.) to show you the version of Python that the python command resolves to. If that’s all you need, you’re done. But to see every version of python in your system takes a bit more. In Ubuntu we can check the resolution with readlink -f $(which python) .

How do I tell which version of Python is installed?

Typing python -V into the Command Prompt should display the version. If you have Python installed then the easiest way you can check the version number is by typing “python” in your command prompt. It will show you the version number and if it is running on 32 bit or 64 bit and some other information.
