Certainly! Installing the latest version of Python on Linux is a straightforward process. Below is a step-by-step tutorial for installing Python on a Linux system, along with code examples.
Before installing any software, it’s a good practice to update the package lists to ensure you are getting the latest versions of the packages.
Python has some dependencies that need to be installed before building it from source. Install these dependencies using the following command:
Visit the official Python website to find the latest version. Copy the link to the source code and use wget to download it.
Replace 3.x.x with the version number you want to install.
Extract the downloaded source code using tar.
Navigate into the extracted directory and run the configure script. This script checks for dependencies and configures the build process.
Now, build Python from the source.
Install the compiled Python binaries.
Using altinstall instead of install ensures that the system Python remains unaffected.
Check that Python has been installed successfully.
Replace 3.x.x with the version you installed. You should see the Python version printed on the terminal.
Update pip to the latest version.
You can clean up the downloaded source code and the temporary build files.
That’s it! You’ve successfully installed the latest version of Python on your Linux system. You can now start using Python for your development projects.
