You can get the interpreter to interpret a python file by importing it,
ala:

>>>> import spam.py

I do this often. It's generally best to learn to live in the interpreter
for testing things.

If there are specific methods or attributes you want to invoke or access,
you can then do so by such forms as

>>>> spam.someVariable

...or...

>>>> spam.someFunction()
