Answer 1

Suppose you currently have python 2.7 installed in your virtualenv. But want to make use of python3.2, You would have to update this with:

$ virtualenv --python=/usr/bin/python3.2 name_of_your_virtualenv

Then activate your virtualenv by:

$ source activate name_of_your_virtualenv

and then do: python --version in shell to check whether your version is now updated.
