Nick Parlante works at google at EngEDU and is also a lecturer at Stanford.
this is a 2 day class...   got 690,000 views...
 
note:  Nick is probably running this in a Unix shell... that's why
python... hello  works for him  and  ./  works for him...  he does NOT explain that!
 
print sys.argv  will show you the arguments list from the command line.
 
python lists have square brackets around them and comma separated;
 
two ways to research what is in a module
 
import sys
 
dir (sys)  will show you what is in the module
 
help(sys)  will show you help
 
or help (sys.exit)  will youhelp on just that one function  exit.
 
len  is a built in function... just type that in...
 
help (len)
 
or just SEARCH in GOOGLE:   python  sys exit...
