Calling Sys.argv in Print Command in Python












2















I am a beginner programmer and i can't get this. Trying to print Sys.argv. I have the PRINT command set in script which should call sys.argv.



how do i run : python test.py device1



what i have tried :



print ('please Check' + sys.argv[1]_config.txt )


Current Output :



please Check + sys.argv[1]+_config.txt


what i am looking for :



print " please check device1_config.txt


Any Idea how to do this?

  • In test.py , did you use from __future__ import print_function to use that python3.x style print function?
