I’d be happy to provide you with a tutorial for Python 2.7 on Ubuntu. Please note that Python 2.7 reached its end-of-life in January 2020, and it’s highly recommended to use Python 3.x versions as they receive active support and updates. However, I’ll provide steps and examples for Python 2.7 as requested.
Python 2.7 might not come pre-installed on newer versions of Ubuntu. To install it, follow these steps:
Open a terminal (Ctrl + Alt + T) and update the package lists to ensure you have the latest versions available:
Run the following command to install Python 2.7:
Check if Python 2.7 is installed successfully:
You can create Python files using any text editor and execute them in the terminal.
Let’s create a simple Python script:
Add the following Python code to the file:
Save the file (Ctrl + O, then Enter to confirm, and Ctrl + X to exit).
Run the script using Python 2.7:
Python 2.7 uses pip for package management. You can install packages like this:
Then, to install a package (for example, requests):
Python 2.7 is no longer supported, and security updates are not provided. It’s highly recommended to migrate to Python 3.x as soon as possible, as most libraries and frameworks have transitioned to Python 3, and it ensures better security and support.
For Python development on Ubuntu, it’s recommended to use the system’s default Python 3 interpreter (python3) alongside pip3 for installing packages.
Here’s a quick example of running Python 3 code:
Create a Python 3 file:
Add the following code:
Save and run the script:
Python 2.7 is outdated and unsupported. While it’s possible to use it, it’s strongly advised to migrate your projects and codebase to Python 3 for ongoing support, better performance, and security.
