python: Run the script of the specified library module.
$ python -m ${module} ${arguments}
try on your machine

This command is invoking a Python module using the '-m' flag.

Here is the breakdown of each component:

  • 'python' is the name of the Python interpreter executable.
  • '-m' is a flag that tells the Python interpreter to run a module as a script.
  • '${module}' refers to the name of the specific module you want to run. You should replace '${module}' with the actual name of the module you want to execute.
  • '${arguments}' represents any additional arguments or options that you want to pass to the module. Again, you should replace '${arguments}' with the desired arguments for your module.

Overall, this command allows you to run a Python module directly from the command line by specifying the module's name and passing any necessary arguments.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
