hi guy,

I am facing some problem. I want to execute a (.py) extension file into
another (.py) extension file. i am tired of searching on websites but
didn’t
get any satisfactory results. Is it possible or is there any other way
of
doing this. can anyone help please.

I suggest starting with the Python Tutorial:

The Python Tutorial — Python 3.11.4 documentation

Or in pdf:

Download — Python 3.11.4 documentation

Hello,

That’s not a good python textbook, it is more like a quick start guide.
I
would suggest him
“Learning python 4th edition” from Mark Lutz.

Thanks for your suggestions guys. But i think i didn’t convey myself
properly. Right now i want to fetch out the gain at some frequency using
(usrp_wfm_rcv.py) in a loop in which i can change my frequency in every
iteration. is there any way i can get it.

Thanks

Yes, there is. Try the “subprocess.Popen” command in python (
subprocess — Subprocess management — Python 3.11.4 documentation). The one thing in this
code
that you will need to modify slightly is in the calls to set up the
pipes,
you need to to use “subprocess.PIPE” instead of simply “PIPE”.

At this point, you could use the pipe to communicate to the other
process
both ways. The easiest way I have found for this is with the
“os.read(…)”
and “os.write(…)” commands. One thing about the os.write and os.read
commands is that for the first parameter you will need the file
descriptor
number, not the file descriptor.

To get this, lets say you assign the subprocess to “p”; in order to get
the
file number in order to talk to the child process, you would type in
“p.stdin.fileno()” to write to the process, or “p.stdout.fileno()” to
read
from the process. Another simple way to write to a process at startup
is to
pass it arguments.

Here is some source code that shows how to do this (
Google Code Archive - Long-term storage for Google Code Project Hosting.).
On line 40, this shows how to dynamically assign arguments to a child
process with the subprocess.Popen command, as well as how to read in the
arguments very simply on lines 7, 15, 23, 31 with the use of the argv
array
(mind you that argv[0] is the process name). This example also shows
how to
use the os.write on lines 42 and 43.

Thanks,
