I was trying to remove python3 and reinstall it, but didn't had an idea about purge, so accidentally purged it. Now terminal, software center, and important library are missing.

I am aware of the solution:

Removed Python 3 and now Ubuntu Software Center, terminal and other applications don't work

and

I deleted package 'python3' on Ubuntu and I have lost dashboard, terminal and Unity. Help me to restore my data please

but none of them seem to work. Installing most packages require python3 dependency which is not met and I am prompted to execute apt-get -f install for which i get image of error in Xterm

I am using Xterm as substitute of terminal.

Please help to restore.

Please do not take screenshot of running terminal, instead copy the output and paste them here using code block. – Liso Mar 08 '19 at 02:48
You're using Ubuntu 16.04, yes? – wjandrea Mar 08 '19 at 03:56
Try sudo apt-get install --reinstall python3.5-minimal – wjandrea Mar 08 '19 at 04:28
@Emmet sorry, newbie – Prakhar Mar 08 '19 at 15:28
@wjandrea not working, dependency issues – Prakhar Mar 08 '19 at 15:28
@Prakhar Please [edit] to add the output. Also switch that screenshot for text while you're there please. – wjandrea Mar 08 '19 at 15:52
