Hi Mike,
The main way to run a Python program is to run it through its interpreter.
That is, there's no need to build a separate executable: the source is the
distributable.
If you really need to make an .EXE, there are tools like py2exe that help
with this:
http://py2exe.sourceforge.net
but most people don't have to do this to play with Python.
Are you going through a tutorial such as the ones below?

The tutorials there may help you get started.
If you have more questions, please feel free to ask.
