title: How to pass a String sentence as Command Line Argument
body: <p>The following code takes single String values which can be retrieved on the Python side. How can one do this with a sentence String with spaces?</p>
  
  <pre><code>from sys import argv
  
  script, firstargument = argv
  
  print "The script is called:", script
  print "Your first variable is:", firstargument
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>To run that I would pass arguments as such :</p>
  
  <pre><code>$ python test.py firstargument
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Which would output</p>
  
  <pre><code>The script is called:test.py
  Your first variable is:firstargument
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>An example input could be "Hello world the program runs" and I want to pass this as a command line argument to be stored in the 'first' variable.</p>
