Str Argument in Python -

the code

def main(bar):     bar = str(bar)     print bar main(sys.argv[1:])

prints

['bar']

, instead of just

bar

. should make input argument string? thanks. (python 2.5.2)

by passing sys.argv[1:] you're passing range of first argument every following argument. can of following independently desired results

# target 1 element when passing in main(sys.argv[1])  # or inside of function bar = str(bar[0])
