I am newbie and want to know what is the difference between subprocess.Popen() and subprocess.call() ?
Simply speaking, call() is a way to make subprocess easier to use. Popen gives you much more powerful options but that flexibility means it's harder to use.
when is it best to use each one?
Use the simplest option that works for you. Start with call and if it can't do the job switch to Popen.
