The worked solution
Have you tried it?
Work it out on paper first. It is fine to get stuck or make a mistake: that is how we learn. When you are ready, compare your working with the solution.
Plan. The module sys knows the version. sys.version is a text with the full version, and sys.version_info.major is the first number.
Answer. The code box runs a current Python 3. The program shows Major version: 3. This is the same language that you install on your computer, so what you learn here works there.
