|
|
|
|
This module represents the (otherwise anonymous) scope in which the
|
|
interpreter's main program executes --- commands read either from
|
|
standard input, from a script file, or from an interactive prompt. It
|
|
is this environment in which the idiomatic ``conditional script''
|
|
stanza causes a script to run:
|
|
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
if __name__ == "__main__":
|
|
main()
|
|
\end{verbatim}
