How to check which python you're using.
-Open command prompt --> type python --> Hit enter
-If You've set the python path in in system environment variables it'll show the python version and python IDLE
-else it'll show "python is not recognized as an internal windows"

How to switch between Python 2.x and Python 3.x
-Download Python 2.x and 3.x from "https://www.python.org/downloads/"
-Install the python 2.x and 3.x in different directories.
-Now if you want to use python2 by default, set the path of Python2 in system environment variables, do the same if you want to use Python3
-If you're using Python2 already, just download and install Python3 in different directory, set path if you want to use it.
