title: How to remove default Python, install latest version on Raspbian
body: <p>I just got my first Raspberry Pi, and I wanted to use the latest version of Python, but I don't know how to set it up so that when I run <code>python</code> in the command line, it will run Python <code>3.8.2</code>, rather than <code>3.7.3</code>. I downloaded the <a href="https://www.python.org/downloads/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">latest release</a> of Python from the website, but it's not a setup script, and I'm not sure how to set it to the path otherwise. Is there a way to replace the default version on Raspbian with the version I've just downloaded?</p>
  
  <p>This is my first time working with any kind of Linux distro, so when I look for the answer on SO or elsewhere, I don't quite know how to word it, and there are very different answers, which makes me think I'm not asking the right question. What could I be doing wrong, and how can I set it up correctly? </p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
