Module _socket not found in python3.6 "No module named _socket"

[pavan kopparthi]

I too facing the same issue related to pip file for other models
installation.

Installed Python 3.6.3 Amd64 in Windows 10 OS.

Want to install Tensor flow using native pip as suggested...
But, observed that pip3 file in Scripts folder is missing. Also, Scripts
folder is empty.

I have been getting this message, "No module named '_socket'", since I
installed python 3.6, about two months ago.

My platform is Slackware Linux (14.2). I compiled python3.6 from source,
because binary python packages aren't distributed by python.org for Linux.
I have the same experience on multiple Slackware computers, not just one.
Actually, this problem hits the 64-bit distribution. I have a 32-bit
Slackware box that has no trouble with _socket.

I can not 'import socket' into a program, nor can I use 'pip' to install
modules. These require the _socket module, which doesn't exist. What does
exist is a shared library object called '_
socket.cpython-36m-i386-linux-gnu.so'. This looks tantalizingly like the
missing module, but it is for a 32-bit architecture.

This is not the only missing module for 64-bit Slackware Linux. I can not
find a trace of the 'math' module, which, again, works fine on my 32-bit
computer.

I am far from an expert on installing python modules, so I am asking for
advice on how I should proceed to find these modules.

Thanks in advance.
