To run the program, remember to either type just the name of the program (./paging-linear-translate.py) or possibly this (python paging-linear-translate.py). When you run it with the -h (help) flag, you see:

Usage: paging-linear-translate.py [options]

Options:
-h, --help              show this help message and exit
-s SEED, --seed=SEED    the random seed
-a ASIZE, --asize=ASIZE 
                        address space size (e.g., 16, 64k, ...)
-p PSIZE, --physmem=PSIZE
                        physical memory size (e.g., 16, 64k, ...)
-P PAGESIZE, --pagesize=PAGESIZE
                        page size (e.g., 4k, 8k, ...)
-n NUM, --addresses=NUM number of virtual addresses to generate
-u USED, --used=USED    percent of address space that is used
-v                      verbose mode
-c                      compute answers for me

First, run the program without any arguments in the terminal below:

./paging-linear-translate.py

Here is what you will see:

ARG seed 0
ARG address space size 16k
ARG phys mem size 64k
ARG page size 4k
ARG verbose False
