When I was first starting out my programming adventures with Python, someone told me that I should work with Python 3 instead of 2 because that's what will be maintained in the future (this was some 8 years ago). I decided to listen and when I got home I opened up my terminal, wrote:
sudo apt-get remove pythonFollowed by
sudo apt-get install python3Only to be suddenly greeted with:
sudo: command not foundI remember I did the same mistakes few years ago. If I'm not mistaken, there is a big warning message when you try to remove Python, no?
Why does removing python remove half the OS though? Does it remove all the things that depend on it?
