Python 3.3 (Using IDLE)

0

I recently installed Python 3.3 on Centos 6 (which has Python 2.6.6 already installed). When I try to open the the Python Shell with IDLE, it opens with Python 2.6.6.

How do I open Python 3.3 with IDLE?

On my system I have idle and idle3. Different flavor, but have you checked for tab completion options in your terminal (type idle and hit tab a few times to see if it shows other executables). – nerdwaller – 2013-06-08T05:46:04.113

1I can't believe I was overlooking tab completion! Your solution of course worked :) Thanks. – user98496 – 2013-06-08T12:55:11.860

On my Ubunto 16.04 system, I installed idle3: sudo apt install idle3

Then executing "idle3" brings up a Python 3 window.
