title: How to package python files without exposing source code
body: <p>I am coding for a Secure Key Management module in python.</p>
  
  <p>I don't want to package and expose my <strong>.py</strong> files which contains very important algorithms.</p>
  
  <p>Is it possible to package <strong>.pyc</strong> files just like we create a <strong>.jar</strong> out of .class files in Java and be able to execute the functionalities?</p>
  
  <p>I dont think I should switch to writing entire code in Java for this reason.</p>
  
  <p>Jython is used for this purpose? </p>
