How to read/process command line arguments?

Question

I am originally a C programmer. I have seen numerous tricks and \"hacks\" to read many different arguments.

What are some of the ways Python programmers can do this

Answer 1

import sys

print("\n".join(sys.argv))

sys.argv is a list that contains all the arguments passed to the script on the command line.

Basically,

import sys
print(sys.argv[1:])
