Can I call a Powershell Command Line from within a Python Script?
Post Body

I'm having some memory issues with running a repetitive script within a data processing program that I'm using. I run it from a Powershell command line with the following sort of syntax:

Program.exe -batch -macro D:\Path\Scripts\Script.py

Is it possible for me to have a python 2.7 script that will call this for me and pass a specific string to Powershell in Windows 10?

I figure being able to do this will let me run the program for 1 set of data, close the program to relinquish the memory that should be released when closing a project within the program, then iterate to my next data set and reopen the program fresh.
