I am trying to install PIP package management system in my Mac but I am getting an error.

When I am writing a cod sudo easy_install pip, it is giving me following error: 

Searching for pip
Reading https://pypi.python.org/simple/pip/
Download error on https://pypi.python.org/simple/pip/: [SSL:
TLSV1_ALERT_PROTOCOL_VERSION] tlsv1 alert protocol version (_ssl.c:590) -- Some packages may not be found! 
Couldn't find index page for 'pip' (maybe misspelled?)
Scanning index of all packages (this may take a while)
Reading https://pypi.python.org/simple/ Download error on https://pypi.python.org/simple/: [SSL: TLSV1_ALERT_PROTOCOL_VERSION] tlsv1 alert protocol version (_ssl.c:590) 
-- Some packages may not be found!
No local packages or download links found for pip
error: Could not find suitable distribution for Requirement.parse('pip')

Can anyone help me to understand this?

The easy solution is download and install the latest version of Python 3. Just grab the dmg from the website https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-370/ Verify it was installed.

$ python3 --version
Python 3.7.0

Pip is automatically included in this version so update it. Note use pip3 for Python 3.x

$ pip3 install --upgrade pip 
 Successfully uninstalled pip-10.0.1
 Successfully installed pip-18.0

This worked for me:

Make sure you installed python

$ python3 --version

Then install pip

$ python3 -m pip install --user --upgrade pip

$ python3 -m pip --version
