Ok, so it clearly says you need a Python version greater
than or equal to 3.6. Which version of Python are you using?

Can you clarify your current status since that will help
us provide suitable solutions.

Can you already program in any other language? (If so which?)
Or are you a complete beginner programmer?

Normally when learning a language it's best to start with
the basics which don't require installing third party
libraries. Is there some specific task you need this
library for?
Is there not an existing python distribution that
includes the library already - like Enthought or
Anaconda say?

Before trying to solve the problem the hard way it might
be worth first checking if a simpler alternative exists?
