Hi all, I'm sorry about the newbie question, but I've been searching all afternoon and can't find the answer!
I'm trying to get this bit of code to work without triggering the IndexError. import shutil, os, sys if sys.argv[1] != None: ver = sys.argv[1] else: ver = '2.14' Of course, whenever I run it, I get list index out of range. I'm coming from the php world where I can do: if $_GET['var'] != Null { $ver = $_GET['var']; } else { $ver = '2.14'; } Can anyone tell me how to make this work in python? Thanks!
