How to Install Python 3 on CentOS 7
What is Python?
Python is a general purpose, high-level, object-oriented script. It is open source and was developed in 1991 by Von Hansen in Holland.
Unlike some other common programming languages, where code blocks are defined in the parenthesis, Python uses the character spacing and forwarding of the program to specify blocks of code. This means that there are a number of identical spacing characters in the beginning of each block's lines, and this number increases in the inner code blocks. This way blocks of code are automatically organized.
Please note: all the commands written below must be entered with root access.
