How to run another python script?

[Dan Lee]

Hi.

I just knew what python is.
Now I'm about to write backup script.Now I got 2 scripts.

AAA : generate zip file
BBB : delete old file.

AAA is done.
Now I'm going to code BBB file. and I will fix AAA to call BBB to
delete dump file at the end.
Please let me know How can I call the BBB file from AAA file.

Thanks in advance.

Please let me know How can I call the BBB file from AAA file.

Simple: Make a call using the underlying os from the aptly named "os"
module (or other!). OR import BBB and execute the code.

In that case, code the delete function in AAA => No BBB file, problem
solved.
There is of course plenty of ways to execute BBB from AAA but that would
be overkill.

If you really want to write the BBB file, then write it, import it in
AAA and call the BBB.deleteOldFile function.
