更新python mac安装

Question

I mistakenly deleted the old python installion on my system, i then downloaded the new python 3 release however when i type python into the terminal it still looks for it in the 2.7 directory. I looked through a few questions that said something about updating the path variable however ive had no luck, as to me it seems that python is only 4 files installed in the applications folder. I really would appreciate some help. Thank you

It is better if you reinstall your system from recovery mode. A lot of OSX software can rely on system python, even if it is not python projects. Then recomended way is use homebrew . You can have different python (2.7, 3.3, pypy) versions the same time.
