Question about exporting Python
#1
Python can be saved as a .py file which can be run by Python. This .py is a file that is interpreted.

But you cannot distribute .py files because
1) Users can read the file
2) Users need Python to run it

So you compile Python to a binary file (.exe) and then distribute it.

But.. at this point the binary file is no longer "interpreted" but is "compiled". So Python should be a compiled language right? Why is it interpreted? The only time you're interpreting is when testing..
