How to switch Python versions in Terminal?

The simplest way would be to add an alias to python3 to always point to the native python installed. Add this line to the .bash_profile file in your $HOME directory at the last,

alias python="python3"

Doing so makes the changes to be reflected on every interactive shell opened.
