Technology Used:

The code uses Python for scripting and URL manipulation.
It utilizes the TinyURL API to create shortened URLs, which is a web service.
The code supports different Python versions by using conditional imports. 
 

Working Process:

It executes the script from the command line via passing a list of URLs as arguments. Where it calls the main function to process each input URL.
 
To generate URLs used a service and TinyURLs are generated for each input URL and printed to the console. For that defined a make_tiny function to generate TinyURLs.
 
It constructs a request URL to the TinyURL API with the input URL as a query parameter.
 
So for each URL, call the make_tiny function to generate a TinyURL.There by prints the TinyURL to the console.
 
If you click the generated link you see the same output as the original URL shows.
 
 

Output:

The script's output consists of the shortened TinyURLs corresponding to the input URLs.
Users can use these TinyURLs to share more concise links to the original URLs.
