Like C, Python uses == for comparison while = for assignment. Python interpreter uses the main function in two ways
- import: __name__= module’s filename
if statement==false, and the script in __main__ will not be executed
- direct run:__name__=__main__
if statement == True, and the script in _main_will be executed
- So when the code is executed, it will check for module name with “if.”
It is important that after defining the main function, you call the code by if__name__== “__main__” and then run the code, only then you will get the output “hello world!” in the programming console as shown below.
