how to accept multiple values or a list of values from command prompt. and store into single variable.

folderpath, next list of file names to delete.

accept "ab,xy,py,cd,ef,gh" and store into single variable.

**python test.py "C:/Users/malle/OneDrive/Desktop/C/test_data" "ab,xy,py,cd,ef,gh"**

"""
sys.argv returns a list object containing all the arguments passed when
running your script, including the script itself.

In this case, running the command python test.py "ab,xy,py,cd,ef,gh"
will return: ['test.py', 'ab,xy,py,cd,ef,gh']

If, instead of the list of values enclosed in double quotes you pass
the individual values separated by spaces, you will get a list with
the script name plus every value you passed.

python test.py ab xy py cd ef gh
will return: ['test.py', 'ab', 'xy', 'py', 'cd', 'ef', 'gh']

Than you can get only the values you want using list comprehension:
values = sys.argv[1:]

The above gets all the values from sys.argv except the first index,
which is the script file.

arguments = sys.argv
values = arguments[1:]
