Python is a high-level, general-purpose programming language. Its design philosophy emphasizes code readability with the use of significant indentation.

I personally prefer to use bash on Linux for small programs, but sometimes the complexity of the program requires a high level language.

1. Install Python using apt manager:

sudo apt install python3

After the install you can run python3:

2. (Optional) you can install the Python Package Manager:

sudo apt install python3-pip  

Use this command only if you want to install some additional modules to your Python installation, like requests:

python3 -m pip install requests
