Setting up Python 3 as default for Ubuntu and Debian
----------------------------------------------------
Ubuntu and Debian are still providing Python 2.7 as the default interpreter. Python 3 can be installed as follows::
sudo apt-get install python3 python3-pip python3-setuptools
Making Python 3 the default interpreter is possible by running::
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/bin/python3 10
.. note::
This is system-wide change which may affect all of the applications.
