Hello All,
I am writing a python code for processing a data obtained from a sensor. The
data from sensor is obtained by executing a python script. The data obtained
should be further given to another python module where the received data is
used for adjusting the location of an object.
For achieving this, there is a central bash script, which runs both the python
modules parallel. Something like:
python a.py &
python b.py &
What is going on that two python scripts are needed? Which one generates the
data needed by the bash script?
One python script communicates with an external sensor and receives data.
Another script controls a robot. That is based on ROS modules.
From the given code, a.py will be the script generating the data. Both the
modules are independent [snip]
Except that they clearly aren't, because the operation of one depends on
the results of the other. You may need to think harder about that.
It would appear that your main problem is that you don't understand
bash. This isn't a Python issue at all, it's about how the shell runs
programs and gets results back. We aren't a Bash programming newsgroup
(or mailing list), and honestly even if we were it seems like you need
to absorb a lot of basic concepts. You will be much better off finding
and reading a decent shell scripting tutorial. Pay particular attention
to piping, which appears to be what you are trying to reinvent. If all
else fails, Read The Fine Manual; it's not the easiest of reads, but it
does contain all the information you need.
