I've introduced Ubuntu 19.04 which has Python 3.7 naturally. I want to work on different projects that actually use Python 3.6.
Is there an approach to install it on Disco Dingo?
I attempted which deals with 16.04
milano@milano-desktop:~$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jonathonf/python-3.6
...
milano@milano-desktop:~$ sudo apt-get install python3.6

This PPA contains more recent Python versions packaged for Ubuntu.

Update Note

Please use this repository instead of ppa:fkrull/deadsnakes.
Reporting Issues
================
Issues can be reported in the master issue tracker at:
https://github.com/deadsnakes/issues/issues
Supported Ubuntu and Python Versions
====================================
Python 3.6 - Ubuntu 14.04, Ubuntu 16.04
For Ubuntu up to 18.04, there's also packages for old Python versions from 2.3 to 3.4.
The packages may also work on other versions of Ubuntu or Debian, but that is not tested or supported.
Third-Party Python Modules
==========================
Python modules in the official Ubuntu repositories are packaged to work with the Python interpreters from the official repositories. Accordingly, they generally won't work with the Python interpreters from this PPA. As an exception, pure-Python modules for Python 3 will work, but any compiled extension modules won't.
To install 3rd-party Python modules, you should use the common Python packaging tools. For an introduction into the Python packaging ecosystem and its tools, refer to the Python Packaging User Guide:
https://packaging.python.org/installing/
