Documentation problem

In the documents, it says at least Python 3.6.1 installed to create Python virtual environment to contribute Pandas. However, to install some development requirements (such as NumPy) Python version must be >=3.7. See here for NumPy minimum requirement.

Suggested fix for documentation

We should update the relevant document so contributors can install an appropriate virtual environment for contribution.
Suggested edit:
You’ll need to have at least Python 3.7 installed on your system.
