How to use python2 and python3 at the same time on ROS melodic

Hi everyone,

I'm fairly new to ROS. My first node is written in Python 2, and my second is written in Python 3. Because it has Python3, the master node is not sending data to the second node. Is there anything I need to install or configure to run Python 2 and Python 3 concurrently? If anyone has any suggestions. Please advise on the best way to resolve this.

Thanks.

Create two separate workspace, say py2_ws and py3_ws. Keep Python 2 codes in py2_ws and so on.
