I need to make some command line calls to linux and get the return from this, however doing it as below is just returning 0 when it should return a time value, like 00:08:19, I am testing the exact same call in regular command line and it returns the time value 00:08:19 so I am confused as to what I am doing wrong as I thought this was how to do it in python.

I have Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 installed already. I downloaded the zip file Python for Windows extensions and extracted the contents into my Python27 folder. There’s now a subfolder called pywin32-214. (Is the 32 part a problem? I’m on a 64-bit system.) Here’s a transcript from the command line:
I want my Python script to be able to read Unicode command line arguments in Windows. But it appears that sys.argv is a string encoded in some local encoding, rather than Unicode. How can I read the command line in full Unicode?
I have a simple Python question that I’m having brain freeze on. This code snippet works. But when I substitue “258 494-3929” with phoneNumber, I get the following error below:
I’ve got a fresh installation of Python 3.6 + Selenium and now want to install Clarifai 2.0.21.
