Hello,
I am very new to programming and have been using Python on my Mac
mini 1.66. I'm a bit confused by the install procedure as I have two
different versions on my machine.
I didn't know that it came pre-installed on my mac (version 2.3) and
went to the DL site for 2.61. Well it downloaded just fine but I seem
to have a few situations.
My main question is "How do I get the downloaded version to replace
what's on my system?
As it is, I can open the IDLE and it verifies I have installed
version 2.61. But when I run a dir() request it spouts the version is
2.3. Confusing...
Further I DL'ed the .tar which decompressed to a .dmg file. The 2.61
folder is currently on my Desktop, where I process most of my downloads.
Thanks!
And finally, this is amazing stuff. I've dreamed about being able to
write software for years and feel I have found something quite useful.
