Is there a Python argument to execute code from the shell without starting up an interactive interpreter or reading from a file? Something similar to:
perl -e 'print "Hi"'
This works:
python -c 'print("Hi")'
Hi
From the manual, man python
:
-c command Specify the command to execute (see next section). This termi- nates the option list (following options are passed as arguments to the command).
