    Could you please post the error messages. Without them, we cannot help you step by step. – Dinesh Jul 10 '18 at 20:55
  • I suspect you are trying to run pip from inside a script or the interactive interpreter, when you should just run it from the OS X terminal. – MoxieBall Jul 10 '18 at 20:55

I am not a Mac user, but if you have python installed in your user, try this:

from subprocess import call
call(['pip', 'install', str(input('Name the module you wish to download:   '))])
