How to run a python file with a predetermined input
To run a Python file with predetermined input, you can make use of command-line arguments or file input. Here are two approaches you can take:
Command-line Arguments:
Modify your Python file to accept command-line arguments using the
sys
module. Here's an example:pythonimport sys
if len(sys.argv) >= 2:
user_input = sys.argv[1]
# Process the user input as needed
print("User input:", user_input)
else:
print("No input provided.")
Save the modified Python file and open a command prompt or terminal.
Run the Python script with the predetermined input as a command-line argument:
arduinopython script.py "predefined input"
Replace
script.py
with the filename of your Python script, and"predefined input"
with the actual input you want to provide.
File Input:
Modify your Python file to read input from a file. Here's an example:
pythonwith open("input.txt", "r") as file:
user_input = file.read().strip()
# Process the user input as needed
print("User input:", user_input)
Save the modified Python file and create a file named
input.txt
in the same directory.Add the predetermined input to the
input.txt
file.Open a command prompt or terminal and navigate to the directory containing the Python script.
Run the Python script:
python script.py
The script will read the predetermined input from the
input.txt
file.
Choose the approach that suits your needs best—command-line arguments or file input—and modify your Python script accordingly. Ensure that the input is processed correctly within your script.
