pyenv：没有这样的命令“virtualenv”

Question

I'm following a tutorial on setting up torch on ubuntu 20.04 one line requires to setup pyenv which is like virtualenv for python so I can have multiple versions of python running. A bit unnecessary but it's a learning process and a good chance to learn of another new tool I might use another day.

So this command after successfully setting up pyenv fails

sam@sam:~/torch$ pyenv virtualenv 3.8.2 torch
pyenv: no such command `virtualenv'

so to cover my basics I already have virtualenv installed as shown here

sam@sam:~/torch$ virtualenv
usage: virtualenv [--version] [--with-traceback] [-v | -q] [--app-data APP_DATA] [--clear-app-data] [--discovery {builtin}] [-p py] [--creator {builtin,cpython3-posix,venv}] [--seeder {app-data,pip}] [--no-seed]

                dest
virtualenv: error: the following arguments are required: dest

and pyenv is installed as shown here

sam@sam:~/torch$ pyenv
