3Just check pip's version and it should say which Python it's for. But usually pip means Python2 and pip3 means Python3h4z3– h4z32020-02-18 15:23:38 +00:00Commented Feb 18, 2020 at 15:23

Are you trying to get the version of Python or pip?? It's unclear from the question.LLSv2.0– LLSv2.02020-02-18 15:25:45 +00:00Commented Feb 18, 2020 at 15:25

Try the Pip --version command to verify the pip version.
$ pip --version
if you want to know the version of any library installed, try:
$ pip list
if you want to know the python version, just simply run in the command line:
$ python -v

Use
pip -V
which will tell you the PIP version and the python version. If you'd like to decide which python version to install to:
$ pip2.6 install otherpackage
$ pip2.7 install mybarpackage

This is easily Google-able, but to save you a few seconds:
python --version

Use this command to find out which version of pip is installed:
pip list | grep pip
