I am trying to modify the following code but I've come to the conclusion I don't fully understand what is taking place here. If someone would be so kind as to break it down for me line by line I'd be appreciative.
@client.command(name='cmd')
async def cmd(context):
command = context.message.content.replace("!cmd ", "")
word_list = command.split()
if word_list[0] == str(ID):
word_list.pop(0)
final_command = " ".join(word_list)
command = context.message.content.replace("!cmd ", "")
Removes !cmd
from the message by replacing it with an empty string
word_list = command.split()
Splits the message into a list, each word in the message as an item in the list
if word_list[0] == str(ID):
word_list.pop(0)
final_command = " ".join(word_list)
If the first word is an ID (str(ID)
converts the ID to a string it so it can be compared) then remove it from the list. Then combine the words in the list back into a string, joined by spaces.
