A python script is a normal plain text file. You can create it and write whatever you want into it exactly like you would do with a txt file.

One example is the following:

code = 'print "Hello world!"'
with open('my_script.py', 'w') as f:
    f.write(code)

Now if you execute my_script.py, it will print "Hello world!"
