Hello @bhawna,

You can encapsulate all the logic for each script in a function, make a new file which imports all the 3 functions, and then run that script.

So if the scripts are

edureka1.py

def f1():
  ...

edureka2.py

def f2():
  ...

edureka3.py

def f3():
  ...

Then the final script()test.py which you will run is :

#!/usr/bin/python
import sys

from edureka1 import f1
from edureka2 import f2
from edureka3 import f3
print 'Number of arguments:', len(sys.argv), 'arguments.'
print 'Argument List:', str(sys.argv)

from edureka1 import f1
from edureka2 import f2
from edureka3 import f3

f1(str(sys.argv[1]),....)
f2(str(sys.argv[1]),....)
f3(str(sys.argv[1]),....)

Now run above script as follows −

$ python test.py arg1 arg2 arg3...............

Hope it helps!!

Thank You!!
