Literally, chmod +x will suffice.  Make sure the first line is:
!#/usr/bin/env python
or other suitable shebang.


But, I suppose you mean a *stand-alone* executable.  Then:

but it's not really a truly newbie-suitable task (IMHO).  First,
develop a substantial Python application; when you're done you
won't be a newbie any more AND you will have a halfway sensible
reason to want to "make an executable file" from it:-).
