## [Executing modules as scripts](https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/modules.html#more-on-modules)
|
||||
|
||||
When you run a Python module with
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
python fibo.py <arguments>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
> the code in the module will be executed, just as if you imported it, but with the \_\_name\_\_ set to "\_\_main\_\_". That means that by adding this code at the end of your module:
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
if __name__ == "__main__":
|
||||
import sys
|
||||
fib(int(sys.argv[1]))
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
> you can make the file usable as a script as well as an importable module, because the code that parses the command line only runs if the module is executed as the “main” file:
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
python fibo.py 50
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Output:
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
1 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
> If the module is just imported,
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
import fibo
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
> the code is not run.
