With the command brew install python I got the latest version of Python 3 (currently v3.7.0), but I want the last version of Python 3.6 (currently 3.6.5). I have read about another package pyenv that can assist in handle different python installation, but this solution is not suitable for me. Release Date: Feb. This is the second maintenance release of Python 3.8. Note: The release you're looking at is Python 3.8.2, a bugfix release for the legacy 3.8 series. Python 3.9 is now the latest feature release series of Python 3. Get the latest release of 3.9.x here. Major new features of the 3.8 series, compared to 3.7.
