So is it a compiler or interpreter?
Python is a language. It does not 'work' in the sense of your subject line. CPython is a Python compiler/interpreter, as described. When loaded, it may be named python.exe, depending on system and installation. Jython and IronPython are also Python compiler/interpreters. There are also Python compilers of various sorts.
