Compiler?

I you mean a true compiler that translates Python code to machine
language then I don't think there is (although Psyco comes very
close).

If you want to send your code to someone who don't have Python
installed there are several solutions (py2exe, Installer, freeze ...).
All of them bundle the interpreter in the package they create.

HTH.
