+# Set up Python3 Environment and Pip3
+## Date: Thu Sep 13 10:07:00 EDT 2018
+Brief tutorial on using Python3 and Pip3 on the server. This is based on
+the more extensive tutorial available on [Digital Ocean][1].
+## To install and set up
+After logging in, assuming you're in your home directory:
+Make your environment directory:
+``$ mkdir environments``
+Change to it:
+``$ cd environments/``
+Create the environment:
+``$ python3 -m venv my_env``
+Check it out:
+``$ ls my_env/``
+Activate it:
+``$ source my_env/bin/activate``
+Create a basic Python3 program:
+``$echo "print('Hello world')" >> hello.py``
+Run it:
+``$ python hello.py``
+Delete it, if you wish:
+``$ rm hello.py``
+When you're done working in your environment, deactivate it:
+``$ deactivate``
+## Post Setup
+After you've set things up, you just need to activate, do some Python, and
+then deactivate it when you want to do some Python programming:
+``$ source my_env/bin/activate``
+Do some Python programming.
+And when done:
+``$ deactivate``
