Direct way `sys.argv`, comfortable way `optparse`.

Direct way `sys.argv`, comfortable way `optparse`.

I have a feeling he doesn't mean command-line arguments to the
program, but typing on the keyboard after the program has started.
If that is the case:

Direct way `sys.stdin`, many other fancy ways.

As long as we are all guessing, do you perhaps mean raw_input?

my_name = raw_input("What is your name? ")
'Rick'

my_name = raw_input("What is your name? ")
What is your name? Rick <ENTER>>>> my_name

'Rick'

Yeah, sorry for being vague. Thanks.

I have used:

sys.argv[ 1 ]

I have been doing Python for around 2 days now, so please do double check that!
