Introduction
Python is available for many platforms. In this post, we will install Python 3.6 on Windows 10 operating system. The official website of Python is https://www.python.org/ from which you can download the Windows Installer.
Steps to Download

Set options and follow the Installer wizard options.
Most of the time accept the default settings and wait until the install is finished, and you are
done with the installation. Installation may take a while so hang on until you see a success message.
Verification
Launch a command prompt and issue the following command to check if the installation is successful. This will work if you have added Python to environment variables manually or set it during installation in Advanced options.
Otherwise, change the directory to the installation path of Python and issue the following command.

In case you have an old version installed on your machine the installer wizard will prompt you to upgrade to the latest version or choose a custom install. Choose whatever that best suits your need.
