Installation of several python versions is easy on at least Windows & unixish platforms. For the latter, ususally your package-management offers several versions. If your's doesn't or you use windows, just install as required by python itself. Only what gets chosen as default python version in case of e.g. *.py-files clicking in windows explorer depends on the python version installed as last and must be changed by the OS's means for it if other behavior is desired.
