Dive into Python on the web is a good resource for those with some
programming experience. And chapter 5 goes into command line arguments some.
Some real books I also like:
Python in the Nutshell
Python Cookbook
Programming in Python
All those real books are on BookShare, but be careful of the indentation as
it is sometimes off.

Subject: python
Hi,
I have been teaching myself python and have a few questions:
1. Does anyone know of a good book on classes, the try statement and the
more advanced things in python?
2. What is the best way of handling command line arguments?
So far I have been doing:
import sys
for i in sys.argv[1:]:
if i == "-b":
do something
elif i == "whatever":
do something else.
Sorry if my indenting is wrong, no braille here.
But just using a loop to go through the argvs, check what it is and do a
certain thing.
Is there a cleaner/easier way than this?
3. Where is the best place to learn apis such as gtk and any I may need to
know for linux programming and general python stuff?
4. Does anyone know of a book that could teach me the more advanced things
as wells as review the basics in python? (I have a reasonable understanding
of python...)
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
