How do you actually run python programs so that others can download and use them?

What i mean exactly is that... In my computer programing class at school we are coding directly into the python software and also executing our programs in there as well. How is it that I actually turn my code into something others who do not have the python package downloaded can run?

Hi Carla

I've used the py2exe before. It bundles your Python program up into a .exe file that you can give any person using windows. The person downloading your program will not need Python.

Here is a tutorial to get you started with py2exe: http://www.py2exe.org/index.cgi/Tutorial

Do you scripts use PSS/E? Because I don't think py2exe will work with PSS/E.

Let us know how it turns out for you!
