Hi I am trying to do something like this: #!/usr/bin/env python def command_dispatcher(): "Takes comman line arguments and executes regardin method" command = raw_input(">>>") args = command.split(" ") args[0].args[1] class calculate: def bundle(self): print __class__ command_dispatcher() What I need this to do is, take a raw input, split it into parts and execute class args[0] and method args[1] using args[2:] as an argument. But what I have done isn't working. This is the error I get: :!/home/yasar/best_buy/main.py >>>calculate bundle Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/yasar/best_buy/main.py", line 10, in <module> command_dispatcher() File "/home/yasar/best_buy/main.py", line 6, in command_dispatcher args[0].args[1] AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'args' shell returned 1 _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor This communication is for informational purposes only.
