pyenv: Set Python version to be used in the current directory and all directories below it.
$ pyenv local ${2-7-10}
try on your machine

The command "pyenv local ${2-7-10}" sets the local Python version to be used in the current directory using pyenv, a Python version management tool.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "pyenv local" is the pyenv command used to set the local Python version.
  • "${2-7-10}" is a parameter/argument passed to the command. This syntax includes three Python version numbers separated by hyphens. It is likely a placeholder, as the actual version numbers should be provided.

For example, if you want to set the local Python version to be 2.7.10, the command would be: "pyenv local 2.7.10". The specific version numbers you provide will be used to set the local Python version for the current directory, allowing you to use a specific Python version for your project.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
