Python 3.6 Path Confusion

I'm having issues when running the "python3" command along with "pip3" to install several python modules. It seems like my pip3 is linked to python 3.6 (which is what I want to use), but python3 is linked to 3.5. See below :

pip3 --version
    pip 9.0.1 from /usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages (python 3.6)

python3 --version
    Python 3.5.2

I'd like to run python3.6, and I am thinking that my PATH variable may be incorrect (or something to that extent). Thanks

configure your .bash_profile like this

alias python3='python3.6'

//Setting PATH for Python 3.6

//The original version is saved in .bash_profile.pysave

PATH="/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/bin:${PATH}"

export PATH

hope it will help.
