Python installation issues

Question

I am trying to install python latest version in my Ubuntu 18.04, but I am getting the following error:

python setup.py install 

File "setup.py", line 354 + f'found:\n{tzpaths!r}\nwith invalid paths:\n' ^

I tried:

pip install Python-3.10.5 

[sudo] password for rb:

If executing pip with sudo, you may want sudo's -H flag.

Collecting Python-3.10.5 Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement Python-3.10.5 (from versions: ) No matching distribution found for Python-3.10.5

I tried without sudo:

pip install Python-3.10.5 Collecting Python-3.10.5 Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement Python-3.10.5 (from versions: ) No matching distribution found for Python-3.10.5

Could you please provide some solution?
