How do you accept/parse command line arguments for a py file that has no class? Here is what I have inside my file test.py:

import sys

if __name__ == '__main__':

How do I get the arguments when the file is executed via command line? I call it via:

python test.py <arg1>

and obviously want the value of “arg1”.

    Look no further than sys.argv, which is a list containing all arguments passed to the program.
