SCINA Python version?

[lauraluebbert]

Hi jcao,

Will there be a Python version of SCINA?

Best,

Laura

Hi Laura,

Thanks for your interest!

Currently we did not plan for making a SCINA python implementation. As a workaround, would you like to try wrapping SCINA functions in a shell command, and call the command with python when in use? Please let me know if you have questions about wrapping up functions. Thanks!

Best regards, Ze

Hi Ze, Thank you for the swift reply. I never tried wrapping an R function and calling it with Python. Is there a workflow you can recommend?

Hi Laura,

Would you please download the scripts in the R command folder (https://github.com/jcao89757/SCINA/tree/master/R) and try the linux wrapper EM_interface.R? Most of its parameters are the same as the SCINA package, and there is an example linux command in the script comments at the beginning of the code.

The linux command can then be called with python using the os package. The 'naive approach' using os.system in this workflow (https://www.section.io/engineering-education/how-to-execute-linux-commands-in-python/) will achieve the function. Please let me know if anything is not clear with the usage of the code and I'll be glad to help with any of your questions.

Have a nice weekend!

Best regards, Ze
