Issue
I wonder how I can install a python 3.7 virtual environment on a Linux machine that currently has python 2.7? I also do not have sudo
privilege.

Solution
I have found a way to do this with conda
:
First, install conda
in your Linux account:
$ cd ~
$ wget https://repo.anaconda.com/archive/Anaconda3-2020.11-Linux-x86_64.sh
$ bash Anaconda3-2020.11-Linux-x86_64.sh
$ source ~/.bashrc
$ conda update --all
Then create a virtual environment with conda
while specifying Python version:
$ conda create -n myenv python=3.7
$ conda activate hou-env
After that, running python -V
in the command line will return Python 3.7.13
