 By default, installing the Python development workload in Visual Studio 2017 also installs Python 3 (64-bit). You can optionally choose to install 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Python 2, Python 3, Anaconda 2, and Anaconda 3, as described in [Installation](installing-python-support-in-visual-studio.md).

 | --- | --- |
-| [CPython](https://www.python.org/) | The "native" and most commonly-used interpreter, available in 32-bit and 64-bit versions (32-bit recommended). Includes the latest language features, maximum Python package compatibility, full debugging support, and interop with [IPython](http://ipython.org/). See also: [Should I use Python 2 or Python 3?](https://wiki.python.org/moin/Python2orPython3). Note that Visual Studio 2015 and earlier do not support Python 3.6+ and can give errors like **Unsupported python version 3.6**. Use Python 3.5 or earlier instead. |

 | [IronPython](https://github.com/IronLanguages/ironpython2) | A .NET implementation of Python, available in 32-bit and 64-bit versions, providing C#/F#/Visual Basic interop, access to .NET APIs, standard Python debugging (but not C++ mixed-mode debugging), and mixed IronPython/C# debugging. IronPython, however, does not support virtual environments. |
 | [Anaconda](https://www.continuum.io) | An open data science platform powered by Python, and includes the latest version of CPython and most of the difficult-to-install packages. We recommend it if you can't otherwise decide. |
 | [PyPy](https://www.pypy.org/) | A high-performance tracing JIT implementation of Python that's good for long-running programs and situations where you identify performance issues but cannot find other resolutions. Works with Visual Studio but with limited support for advanced debugging features. |
