当尝试使用`python3 --version`或`python3 -V`查询Python版本时，出现`NameError: name 'python3' is not defined`错误。这通常是因为在Python交互式解释器中而非命令行环境下执行了该命令。正确做法是在命令行或终端中运行这些命令，而不是在Python提示符下。同样，安装pip也需在命令行环境下使用`python get-pip.py`。混淆命令行与Python提示符是常见错误。
When we type
python3 --version (or --V)
it is supposed to show us the version of the python right?
However, when I do this I get the following error:
NameError: name 'python3' is not defined
This is also the case when I tried to install the pip by using
python3 get-pip.py

python3 is not Python syntax, it is the Python binary itself, the thing you run to get to the interactive interpreter.
You are confusing the command line with the Python prompt. Open a console (Windows) or terminal (Linux, Mac), the same place you'd use dir or ls to explore your filesystem from the command line.
If you are typing at a >>> prompt you are in the wrong place, that's the Python interpreter itself and it only takes Python syntax. If you started the Python prompt from a command line, exit at this point and go back to the command line. If you started the interpreter from IDLE or in an IDE, then you need to open a terminal or console as a separate program.
Other programs that people often confuse for Python syntax; each of these is actually a program to run in your command prompt:
python, python2.7, python3.5, etc.
pip or pip3
virtualenv
ipython
easy_install
setup.py -- this is a script you need to run with python setup.py [...].
If given arguments, you'll get a SyntaxError exception instead, but the underlying cause is the same:
>>> pip install foobar
File "", line 1
pip install foobar
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
