Is there any way to call python in r2014a ?

I have read different resources which explain that python is supported by r2014b and newer versions. I have only the license of r2014a.

Is there any way to call python script from r2014a ?

I found a way out. I used matlab function dos() to execute python scripts as well as functions and get results back to matlab using one line. Try to have look at example below.

i.e. matlab -> OS command line -> python script/function.

dos() function returns the python results to matlab.

Example:

test.m

def test_func(a, b):
    print('a/b =',a,'/',b);

Then back to matlab:

    >> [status,cmdout] = dos('python -c "from test import test_func; test_func(20,20)" ')

It's still not efficient for time consuming applications. still look for an efficient strategy..
