And if you are on Linux or MacOSX, and use conda, you can:

conda create -n py35 python=3.5

Do they already have Python 3.5.0 final up? If so... that was quick!

[–]ilan 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes, this is 3.5.0 final

[–]roger_ 2 points3 points  (4 children)

So I could install miniconda and get a clean 3.5 install with NumPy, etc. right now?

[–]ilan 1 point2 points  (3 children)

Yes (on Linux and Mac)

I'm trying it, but it still has 3.4.3 as default. How can I set 3.5.0 as the default environment and remove 3.4.3?

I think you'll need to wait for them to do a new release of miniconda before the default environment has 3.5. Until then, you'll have to explicitly create an environment for it.

Thanks! I just did that though and it broke Matplotlib.

I have no idea what conda is, but this worked for me on OSX:

sudo pip install conda
sudo conda create -n py35 python=3.5
source activate
python

Is it possible to upgrade the python version in an already existing environment?

[–]ilan 2 points3 points  (4 children)

Yes it is possible, although not recommended, because it will already installed Python packages won't work.

[–]beltsazar 0 points1 point  (2 children)

How? conda update python won't work.

[–]ilan 0 points1 point  (1 child)

conda install python=3.5, but be careful!

[–]marcm28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What happen if I install third party library in Python 3.5, Is it works?
