This is perhaps a very simple and stupid question!
How do you run a specific function (with actual values for the parameters)
within a module from the command prompt? That is, with "python ..."
For instance, how do I run hello_msg("Hell o no ", 3), which is a function
within the module hello.py, from the console?
def hello_msg(msg, num):
print msg + str(num ** 3) +'!'
#hello_msg("Hel lo no ", 3)

Use the -c option.
python -c "import modulename; modulename.hell o_msg('test', 5)"

Thanks, that was incredibly simple!

Or, from the command prompt, 'import modulename'

My example _was_ from the command prompt, and your approach
doesn't execute hello_msg() as the OP requested.

Hi all,
I'm trying to export a view tables from a Oracle database to a Mysql
database. I create insert statements (they look alright), but it all goes
wrong when I try to execute them in Mysql, because the dates must have
quotes on each side.
I just don't know how make the dates right.
Well I'll just show you the code and some insert statements it generates.
Could anyone please help me?

Good afternoon all!
I have this program in Python that is really starting to make my head go crazy. It utilizes linked lists (circularly linked list).
Now, correct me if I am wrong, but a circular linked list works like this: (the number on the left represents the number of lists)
o - (Header is empty class)
1 - header.next = first element (call this EL1)
EL1.next = EL1

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
