Python Forum

both the python3 and python2 commands (at least in Ubuntu 18.04) takes (or ignores) an extra -c argument and only executes the first one. it should give an error message about the extras if it is wrong to use them.

Output:lt2a/forums /home/forums 13> python3 -c "print('foo')" -c "print('bar')"
foo
lt2a/forums /home/forums 14> python2 -c "print('foo')" -c "print('bar')"
foo
lt2a/forums /home/forums 15>

i was hoping it would be an easy way to give it another "line" of code to run.

Output:(C:\Users\Craig\Anaconda2) C:\Users\Craig\Documents\t_games>python -c "print 'foo'; print 'bar'"
foo
bar

i tried it with ; but it would not work with just any code. nested stuff was not working. it works when the string -c gets has real \n.

Geez; if you're putting \n's in the string to handle nesting, just make a dummy file and run it.

what if i'm using -c because there is no writable file system available? can python(3) read a script from a pipe?
