I guess this is a typo and should read "no executable files" (because viruses).



You should probably check back with them, asking what they are looking for as executables specifically, and have them tell you if it's a typo or not.



Because, should they actually be looking for executables, it makes big a big difference, what systems they're working with and they should specify that.
