For a school project I need to know how to run a Python script from another one that's also written in Python (for the raspberry pi).

1vassili_veronesi: In that case, please [edit] your answer and add code showing what you tried that didn't work (and information on the errors encountered running it). – martineau Jan 21 '17 at 17:46

If the other script is in the same directory as the first one, you can simply `import` it as a module. For example, if the second script's filename was `second.py`, you would need to use `import second`. – martineau Jan 21 '17 at 18:15
