Hi Burge, You can access command line argument via sys.argv:
import sys print sys.argv This prints a list of the command line arguments. Since argv is a list, it means you can check its length to get the argument count: print len( sys.argv ) There is always at least one argument in this list, if no argument was supplied, then you get an empty string.
