You can:
* paste this text into the interactive Python interpreter
* type "python filename"
* chmod 755 the file and add a line at the beginning of the file:
#!/usr/bin/env python
In Windows, appending .py to the filename should cause the shell to
kick-off the Python interpreter if the file is 'launched'. In Linux,
adding .py will have no impact on how the file is handled (the
execute-bit makes it a script, and the first line tells the shell how to
execute the script).
