It is written many different tools and libraries. In addition, Python is popular among developers because it is very easy and quick programming, and it's actually simple to master. [][1]If you have installed the operating system [Linux mint][4], you are learning the programming language **Python** and want to work with the latest version, then this article is for you. +Now I have installed [Linux Mint 18][5].1 and the default installed version 2.7 and 3.5\. You can check this with commands + +``` +TerminalShekin@mylinuxmintpc~$python -V +python2 -V +python3 -V +``` +**Installation latest Python 3.6 version into Linux Mint**: + +``` +TerminalShekin@mylinuxmintpc~$sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jonathonf/python-3.6 +sudo apt update +sudo apt install python3.6 +``` +Check the version of the installed Python 3.6 + +``` +TerminalShekin@mylinuxmintpc~$python3.6 -V +``` +**Please note** that the old version is still here, it still available by the name of **python3**and the new can now be loaded with the command **python3.6**. If you want to use this version instead of the 3.5 to run all the programs, there is a utility **update-alternatives**. But if you try to get a list of possibilities, we get the error: + [![Python 3.6 - install latest version into Linux Mint](https://mintguide.org/uploads/posts/2017-06/thumbs/1496871711_linux_mint_001.png)][6] This is normal, you need to first setup what files for that answer, because the maintainers did not care about it : + +``` +TerminalShekin@mylinuxmintpc~$sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python3 python3 /usr/bin/python3.5 1 +sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python3 python3 /usr/bin/python3.6 2 +``` +Now look again: + +``` +TerminalShekin@mylinuxmintpc~$update-alternatives --list python3 +``` + [![Python 3.6 - install latest version into Linux Mint](https://mintguide.org/uploads/posts/2017-06/thumbs/1496871720_linux_mint_002.png)][7] Now we can choose the required version and switch as needed.
