I am trying to import pyping
for Python 3 but I am getting below error:

You can use ping3 library. But it requires root permission on your machine. This link shows the workaround (unprivileged ICMP sockets which allow to use ping without root).
This is because of absolute imports being in effect (more precisely, the lack of implicit relative imports) for Python 3 and the fact that the pyping
module was most likely only written for Python 2. Whereas in Python 2 you can do:
from core import *
In Python 3 (or if you have from __future__ import absolute_import
in Python 2), you have to do:
from .core import *
or
from pyping.core import *
