Python download problem

I downloaded Python for Windows, and I made sure to click on the path.exe. When I went to my terminal to verify that it had downloaded. I entered python3–vedrsion and I got the following message.
python3–version : The term ‘python3–version’ is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or
operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try
again.

  • python3–version
  •   + CategoryInfo          : ObjectNotFound: (python3--version:String) [], CommandNotFoundException
      + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException

On Windows, it’s recommended that you use the Python Launcher py. Try that instead of python3.

Also, there should be a space before the “–version”:

py --version
