Using Xcode, I have created an application in AppleScript Studio for
Mac OS X. In Macintosh OS X an application icon is actually a kind of
folder that contains a bundle of files.  The user can see and examine
the contents of a bundle by option-clicking on the application bundle
and selecting "show package contents" from the pop-up menu.  How does
one make one or more of a bundle's files inaccessible so the user
cannot examine the AppleScript code in the files?

I have tried hiding the folder that contains the files with "mv
Scripts .Scripts" in the Terminal application.  I have also tried
saving the AppleScript files as "run only."  These attempts kept the
application from running properly.

Kindly frame the answer so it can be understood by someone with a
beginners knowledge of programming.  I have never taken a programming
course and learned AppleScript as I went along writing my program.
