Need some help with updating python to call or start a fortran a.out
executable
The problem I am having is I have an old Fortran based model that I need
to run, in the past the fortran was triggered through the following
python code:
#run fortran
x = commands.getoutput(path+'/a.out')
Since the commands.getoutput has been depreciated it will not run on the
newly built server that will now host this model. I have manually
confirmed that the compiled a.out does run and produces the files, but
the problem I am having is in triggering it to run with python.
The answer is probably so easy it is obviously being overlooked, but I
can not seem to find it. Any suggestions or help would be greatly
appreciated.
