如何从 matlab 调用 python？

Question

Can I have both perl.m and python.m so that I can call either perl or python from matlab? Without knowing exactly how the original perl.m works, I do not feel comfortable simply to replace "perl" with "python". Please help.

Answer 1

If I understand you correctly, you have a file perl.m used to invoke Perl scripts from Matlab? Of course you can't just change its name to python.m and expect it to run Python!

You have to look inside perl.m to see exactly what it does.

Alternatively, Google on calling Python from Matlab - this SO discussion and many other useful resources immediately come up.

Answer 2

You can use method:

status = dos(command)

where in 'command' You enter command like in terminal:

for example:

file - hw.py

print("Hello world")

matlab console:

dos('python yourDir\hw.py')

output in terminal:

Hello world
