python
|virtualenv
I apologize in advance if the question is dummy ,i use Python 3.2.3 on Windows xp ,now i need Python3.3.2 , but i can't remove Python 3.2.3 because i have many codes and packages need to be run by it.
I installed virtualenv to run two versions of Python in two different environments , but after that i didn't know what to do to run a code using Python 3.3.2 , here what i did:
C:\>virtualenv.exe env1
C:\>env1\Scripts\activate
now i don't know what to do after a folder was created its name env1 , i downloaded Python 3.3.2 and installed it in the same folder (env1) , is that correct ? then i try the following:
(env1) C:\>python3.3.2
I got the following :
'python3.3.2' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
also i tried :
(env1) C:\>python python33
I got the following:
python: can't open file 'python33': [Errno 2] No such file or directory
As i mentioned , i stuck at this point , any help will be very appreciated.
Thanks
