But I still couldn't get the clue of locating the files Kind of "Python", either by selecting Kind - others - Python(filled in) in the Finder's +, OR taping the conditions directly in Spotlight, am I missing something??

Thanks in advance!

Actually, a better way to track down Python source:

name:.py created:02/01/2019-02/12/2019

Which says, find every filename (e.g. Python) whose extension contains .py and was created between the first of February and today.
