Quickest way to execute a Python file in Emacs

You answered on your question.

run-python, C-c C-p, can be advised to switch back to the previous window. (defun advice-run-python (&optional CMD DEDICATED SHOW) "Switch back to previous window. C-c C-p is usually invoked from a .py-buffer, with the intention to do C-c C-c next." (other-window 1)) (advice-add 'run-python :after 'advice-run-python)

For extra credit, here is an advice that displays the \*Python\* buffer when doing C-c C-c if it's not already visible. (defun advice-python-shell-send-buffer (&optional SEND-MAIN MSG) "Display *Python* buffer if it exists and is not already visible. Used for C-c C-c in a python source buffer." (let ((name "*Python*")) ;; We want to display the buffer if it's not in a ;; window already. (unless (get-buffer-window name t) (display-buffer name 'display-buffer-in-previous-window)))) (advice-add 'python-shell-send-buffer :after 'advice-python-shell-send-buffer)

No, advice-run-python is separate from advice-python-shell-send-buffer. The latter is just a convenient way to show the \*Python\* buffer after doing C-c C-c if it has become hidden. One can use one of them or both independently.
