You've lost me. I had to look up pyPI and it's something to do with a 
Package Index. But I don't know how that relates to installing Cython.

The problem with pip was in Py3.4. I also have Py3.6, and that didn't 
have pip at all. Or it is something that itself needs to be installed 
first? Or is pyPI a new thing that replaces it?

I'm not a serious Python user so it's not worth the effort of going 
around in circles trying to get these things working. I remember how 
difficult it was to get Numpy going a couple of years back.

If it's already built-in, then fine, but if not, forget it. But for me 
it doesn't matter.
