So I am using the following code to call a Matlab(2016a) function from python(3.6).
>>import win32com.client >>h = win32com.client.Dispatch('matlab.application') >>h.Execute ("plot([0 18], [7 23])") When I am using the 'Execute' statement to run a matlab file from python, I use the statement on python: >>h.Execute ("run('H:\rishika\MATLAB\filewrite.m')") Now this gives the error on python: '??? Error: String is not terminated properly.\n\n' On the other hand, when I am running the command: >>run('H:\rishika\MATLAB\filewrite.m') on command prompt of Matlab, it is working. But when run from python, the statement isn't executing. But when I am executing >>h.Execute ("disp('hi')") on python, I am getting the proper output: 'hi\n' Kindly point out my mistake. P.S. I have tried installing matlab.engine, but I am having missing dll error, which I have not been able to resolve. Hence this method. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
