how python works

[Mahmood Naderan]

I want to know how python executes a .py file. Sometimes when I run a file, I 
get an error that there is a syntax error. This shows that the parser read and 
parse the whole file. Sometimes in the middle of the run I get an error 
that another line has problem. So how does it work? if it doesn't compile and 
read line by line them why some times I get error just before run?
