SyntaxError：无效语法：python -c “import numpy”

Question

I have a sample.py python file, which contains this line:

python -c "import numpy"

Run Command:

$ python sample.py

When executed, the script got the error:

SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Can anyone help me what is the issue with this line?

Answer 1

The content is not python, it's a command.

The content of sample.py should be just

import numpy

Answer 2

python -c... calls python from a shell, and executes -c 's argument by python. If you want that in a script, use a shell script, not a python script. Alternatively, if you're running it with python anyway, drop the python -c , and just keep the python code ( import numpy ).
