[Tutor] pointers

[Bernard Lebel]

Hi Burge,

You can access command line argument via sys.argv:

import sys
print sys.argv

This prints a list of the command line arguments. Since argv is a
list, it means you can check its length to get the argument count:

print len( sys.argv )

There is always at least one argument in this list, if no argument was
supplied, then you get an empty string.


Hope this helps
Bernard
