Hello,
I can execute a Python-Script with the MATLAB function system(commandStr).
I loop a set of data like:
for i=1:100
commandStr = ['python myscript.py ' num2str(i)];
[status, commandOut] = system(commandStr);
...
end
Sometimes, the Python Script can't find a solution. In this case the next "i" never will be calculated. To avoid this, I like to use a timeout option. If there is no solution in x sec, go to the next i.
Thank you for your help.
