2.3? Or 3.2? 2.3 was released before Ubuntu even existed, I think.

You can install Python2 and Python3 (which was already installed by default depends on your version of Ubuntu)
sudo apt install python3 python2.7
Now you can run either python2 or python3 to execute either version. By default python will use the version setup by the system and you likely don't want to change that, but you can by doing:
sudo update-alternatives python
It's usually better to put the version of python needed in your .py shell scripts, like this:
#!/usr/bin/env python3
print("Hello python")
