Like Tal said.  But I'm guessing you are asking about the headers for 
the Apple-supplied System Pythons.  On recent versions of OS X, they are 
not installed by default; you need to install the Command Line Tools 
component to install system headers include those for Python.  How you 
do that varies by OS X release.  In OS X 10.9 Mavericks, you can run 
"xcode-select --install".  For earlier releases, there may be an option 
in Xcode.app's Preferences.  Or you may be able to download the right 
Command Line Tools package from the Apple Developer Connection site.
