This might be obvious, but no one else mentioned it: the Python
interpreter cannot execute code that it hasn't compiled yet, which is
why the "if __name__ ..." code is always at the end of the

No, this belongs into comments or docs. The contents of this block

code if it makes sense to
Sorry for the wrong implication. I should have said I 'mimicked the
style'.
No, not used to Java at all, and obviously not versed in python either
(do I get points for tcl?). Maxq generates jython scripts and when I
saw the .class files I assumed it was the work of the python compiler

Python doesn't generate .class files, and the example you mean is
probably more like
if __name__
The lines
if __name__ == 'main':
someClass().fn()
appear at the end of many examples I see. Is this to cause a .class
file to be generated?
The last line of the sample below has a string parameter. When I
mimicked this I got an error stating that the class constructor did

A quick example demonstrates the usage:
C:\code>type temp.py
prin
s is not main?
Nothing.

By importing the file.

Hi,
I often see the following 'if' construct in python code. What does
this idiom accomplish? What happens if this is not main? How did I get
here if it is not main?
Thanks,
