How can I check my python version in cmd?

Question

I has downloaded python in python.org, and I wanted to check my python version, so I wrote python --version in cmd, but it said just Python, without version. Is there any other way to find out python version?

Answer 1

If you have installed python3 then the correct way for checking the version is

py -3 --version

You can try running this code in command prompt, anoconda prompt and microsoft power shell.
