[Tutor] Opening a dos exe

[Armstrong, Richard J.]

Hello,

 

There is one task that I am trying to do but I cannot find the answer on
the web - I hope that you can help. It is a rather simple problem. I
want to open up a dos program and then run it. I can do that part with
os.system. The problem comes in that the dos program requires three
inputs (input1.txt, input2.txt and input3.txt - see attached picture)
but I cannot find a way of getting this information to the dos program
from python. Any ideas?

 

Thank you,

 

Richard Armstrong
