How to call a Python Script from PHP?

Question

I have some code written in PHP, but I have also developed a script written in Python. Is it possible to call this Python script from the PHP code?

If yes, how can I

Answer 1

You use the system function: http://php.net/manual/en/function.system.php

Something like this:

$mystring = system('python myscript.py myargs', $retval);
