Juno/Atom Python version different from terminal and REPL Python version

Question

I am running Ubuntu 16.04 and my version of Python points to version 3.5, however the one in Atom points to 2.7. Does anybody know how I can change that?

So the python --version in terminal gives me:

Python 3.5.2 :: Anaconda 4.2.0 (64-bit)

and ;python --version in Atom's console gives me:

Python 2.7.12

I use Atom for Julia. I am using Juno and PyCall.

I don't know that there is a built-in Python console in Atom. Have you installed a Python package or a terminal package? It is likely that you need to set the Python path somewhere in the package settings. — DNF

It's not a built in python console. I have looked into julia settings, somewhere so that I can find some python paths, but no luck so far — A.Yazdiha

The problem statement is clear in the text above. It sure is some path that is directed to a different python version. But I do not know which package it is. I am using Atom specifically for Julia, and I have several Julia packages that have dependencies on Python. Moreover the question also has the tag:atom-editor, if it is not Julia related. — A.Yazdiha

I disagree. The problem statement is completely confusing. You appear to be asking about a Python console in Atom, but have for some reason tagged the question with julia-lang. If you are using Atom for Julia, what is the connection between Julia and Python? Are you using Juno and PyCall or something? — DNF

If you want to specify the version of Python used by PyCall, you can find help in the documentation here.

I am not certain if that is your actual problem, though, since I think that ;cmd should be shelling out to the terminal. I would have thought it would be the same as running cmd in the terminal, and be unrelated to PyCall. I might be wrong, though.
