##This is a program that I wrote and ran on my machine by python

Can you find my input?

///////////////////////

import random
import sys
import markmod

arg1 = int(sys.argv[1])

if arg1 >0 and arg1 <= 1000:
print("Valid seed")

random.seed(arg1)
for x in range(10000):
y = random.random()
if markmod.printForValidNumber(x):
print(y)
print(random.random())
print(random.random())
print(random.random())
print(random.random())
break
  
##It printed the following:

#Valid seed
#0.6963297431051183

Command line input has been highlighted with BOLD TEXT

sys.argv containes the arguments provided through command line.

len(sys.argv) will return number of arguments passed to python scripts.

sys.argv[0] is always the name of the python script which you are running.

you passed one argument to this script and it is stored in sys.argv[1]. then you converted it to INT data type.
