title: Recommended way to install pip(3) on centos7
body: <p>I am interrested in knowing the recommended way to install pip3 for python3.6 (as of today, may 2018) on current version of centos7 (7.5.1804) and the accepted answer of <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32618686/how-to-install-pip-in-centos-7">How to install pip in CentOS 7?</a> seems to be outdated because:</p>
  
  <pre><code>yum search -v pip
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>outputs (among other things):</p>
  
  <pre><code>python2-pip.noarch : A tool for installing and managing Python 2 packages
  Repo        : epel
  
  python34-pip.noarch : A tool for installing and managing Python3 packages
  Repo        : epel
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and <code>python34-pip</code> seems to be a (newer?) simpler way than the accepted answer of <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32618686/how-to-install-pip-in-centos-7">How to install pip in CentOS 7?</a> :</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>sudo yum install python34-setuptools</p>
    
    <p>sudo easy_install-3.4 pip</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>But since the versions of python installed on my machine are 2.7.5 and 3.6.3 why is it python34-pip and not python36-pip ? Is pip the same for 3.4+ (up to current 3.6.3) ?</p>
