Description
-
We need to explain the line:
if __name__ == "__main__": -
what does this mean?
action="store_true" -
(may be answer to question 2.) How do we tell it when it should expect a value after an argument and when it shouldn't? e.g.
-tneeds a value afterwards but-pdoesn't.

Research direction
Start by locating the Argparse page in the course materials and review its existing examples. Update the page to address the main guard, action="store_true", and how -t and -p differ in whether they expect values; done means all three questions are answered with clear examples.
