Starting Python 3.8, importlib.metadata can be used as a replacement for pkg_resources to extract the version of third-party packages installed via tools such as pip:

from importlib.metadata import version
version('wheel')
# '0.33.4'

 import sys
 import matplotlib as plt
 import pandas as pd
 import sklearn as skl
 import seaborn as sns

 print(sys.version)
 print(plt.__version__)
 print(pd.__version__)
 print(skl.__version__)
 print(sns.__version__)

The above code shows versions of respective modules: Sample O/P:

3.7.1rc1 (v3.7.1rc1:2064bcf6ce, Sep 26 2018, 14:21:39) [MSC v.1914 32 bit (Intel)] 3.1.0 0.24.2 0.21.2 0.9.0 (sys shows version of python )
