Hi, I have installed 

cassandra-driver 3.4.1 using pip,

and

DataStax Distribution of Apache Cassandra 3.6 for Windows

I am wondering what're the cassandra versions underneath corresponding to the above packages. How to check their cassandra version numbers (e.g. 2.1.x)?

many thanks

I think you answered your own question. Apache Cassandra 3.6 <-- this would be the version.

You can "SELECT release_version FROM system.local" on a running server to see what the exact version is.

Yes, using 

SELECT release_version FROM system.local

can find me 3.6.0 release version.

But I found on DataStax document


and it stated 

The latest version of Cassandra 2.1 is 2.1.13

So, my real question is the versions of the apache cassandra underneath each package installed (cassandra-driver and DataStax Distribution of Apache Cassandra for Windows).

cheers

You have Apache Cassandra 3.6.0. That doc just means the latest version on the 2.1 branch. 

Please see here for an overview of the various branches:
