First, we import the sys. We have to use the argv function of the sys module to extract the arguments of the function entered on the terminal and execute the function.
Example
# fubar.py import sys def print_funcargs (arg1, arg2, arg3): print arg1 + ’’ + arg2 + ’’ + arg3 if __name__ == "__main__": a = sys.argv [1] b = sys.argv [2] c = sys.argv [3] print_funcargs (a, b, c) print sys.argv
On the terminal, if we write
$ python fubar.py I adore books
Output
I adore books [’fubar.py’,’ I’, ’adore’,’ books’]
