==> Caveats
If you use system python (that comes - depending on the OS X version -
with older versions of numpy, scipy and matplotlib), you may need to
ensure that the brewed packages come earlier in Python's sys.path with:
  mkdir -p /Users/andraderenew/Library/Python/2.7/lib/python/site-packages
  echo 'import sys; sys.path.insert(1, "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages")' >> /Users/andraderenew/Library/Python/2.7/lib/python/site-packages/homebrew.pth

Python modules have been installed and Homebrew's site-packages is not
in your Python sys.path, so you will not be able to import the modules
this formula installed. If you plan to develop with these modules,
please run:
  mkdir -p /Users/andraderenew/Library/Python/2.7/lib/python/site-packages
  echo 'import site; site.addsitedir("/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages")' >> /Users/andraderenew/Library/Python/2.7/lib/python/site-packages/homebrew.pth
