If python is in your PATH-Environment variable (if it is properly installed, it should be), you could use one of the following three:

python --version
which python
Whereis python

If you are unlucky, it is not in your PATH and you actually have to search the whole system to be sure it is not installed somewhere.

find / -name python

I haven't used HP-UX in over 10 years, but on most Unices I would try `locate python | grep bin` first. – Fred Foo May 21 '13 at 15:31
