Let's see what the type of the various parts of this expression are :

sys         : module
sys.argv    : list of strings
sys.argv[1] : string

Due to the dot notation, 'index' is a method of the result of
'sys.argv[1]' expression, thus it is a string method.

See the Library Reference in the Builtin Objects section.  Look at
Sequence Objects.  Near the bottom of the page is a link to String
Methods.
