I posed this question before. The usual answer is: a file containing Python source code.
But you can import .pyc files even after the .py files are been removed, likewise .pyd files. Is a Python module anything that's importable and runnable within Python, that responds to dir( ) etc.? True whether or not said module comes with readable source code. In fact, one could argue a Python module is precisely *not* the readable source code .py file, as that *must* be compiled to byte codes first, and saved in the .pyc.
