How to run batch file using python script? [duplicate]

Question

Is this possible? I yes, can anyone help me how to do it. I don't know how to use subprocess and Popen() to run my sort.bat file.

Did you read subprocess's documentation to understand how it works? — DeepSpace

@DeepSpace I tried reading it but I'm still confused on how to apply it to run a batch file/process. But it's okay now. I tried the code from Farhan's answer. But if you have a more comprehensive explanation of the subprocess and Popen() codes than the documentation, I would be glad to hear from you. :) — jirostatic

You can use os.system:

import os
os.system('Path to your .bat file')
