Good Morning All!

 

After spending the whole weekend programming, I have a rather annoying headache! The things we do for our students!

 

We are looking at teaching the students Python and I have installed the Python GUI tool but I'm look to see if there is a compiler so that the finished code can be run and the students can see the results.

 

Any ideas? (Would bang head on desk, but I already have a headache!)

Python is an interpreted language, not a compiled one. So, there isn't a "compiler" as such.

 

To run a python file you'd run it like "python filename.py" in a command prompt.

Does py2exe actually "compile"? Or does it just package everything up into an easy to use exe?

 

It's an interpreted language.... It bundles all the libraries that you are using into a packaged .exe
