If the OP's ultimate aim is to run Python under Android, running it under 
an Android emulator is a good first step (assuming you trust the emulator 
is a good match to actual Android).

Or perhaps he wants to run an Android-only application, but wants to run 
it on his PC. In that case, an Android emulator may allow him to do so.

Or if he wishes to do Android development on his PC, instead of poking at 
the virtual keyboard on a screen the size of your palm, being able to 
test the software on the PC (under emulation) rather than having to 
upload it to your phone is very useful.
