What is the meaning of `terminates option list` as mentioned in Python documentation?

edit

In Python documentation, terminates option list refers to a specific character used to indicate the end of a list of command-line options. This character is often a double dash (--) and signifies that any additional arguments after it will be treated as non-option arguments, even if they begin with a dash. The purpose of this is to prevent ambiguity in option parsing and allow for the inclusion of values that may resemble option names.
