  Do it mean put the lotto application program and the Freeze script program in 
my lotto C:\python folder
  and run the script?

'Alongside' means the program you're interested in and the setup.py script 
should be in the same folder. It doesn't matter what folder that is.


If you're new to Python programming, I'd recommend that you spend a while 
getting comfortable with the files and the command line, and the setup.py files 
used in regular Python package, before you try to use cx_Freeze. 'Freezing' a 
Python program is a rather fiddly technique, and launching straight into it as 
a beginner is more likely to lead to frustration than to produce useful 
outcomes. It's a weak point of Python that distributing applications is so 
difficult, and there ideas being worked on to make it better, but at the moment 
it's a struggle for new users.
