A Python program consists of a script file (the py file you run to start 
the program), and usually one or more additional module files (py files 
that you import).  The latter can be organized in packages, where 
appropriate.   There's also a search path (sys.path) that you can modify 
in various ways (including from within the program) if you want to fetch 
modules from different locations.

That's all there is; there's no header files or declaration files or 
explicitly maintained object files etc; the program itself is just a 
bunch of Python files.

To learn more about this, the "modules" section in the tutorial is a 
good start:

Looking at the structure of a few existing projects might also be helpful.
