| :mod:`__main__` --- Top-level script environment |
| ================================================ |
| |
| .. module:: __main__ |
| :synopsis: The environment where the top-level script is run. |
| |
| |
| 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:: |
| |
| if __name__ == "__main__": |
| main() |
