Pass the result of Python script to VB.net

Question

I have a python file:

myFile.py

def get_value(data):#pass in data as input parameter
    output = process(data)#function to process data
    return output

Here, output can be a float number or a string. I want to call this python script from VB.NET. I searched the web and someone suggested

import System.Diagnostics
Process.Start("C:\python " & "myFile.py")

I am not sure if it is correct. Furthermore, it does not receive output in the python file.

What should I do?

Thank you.

If your python script is just like that your function is never called and therefore doesn't return anything.

I don't know what kind of data you plan to return, if it's simple stuff the perhaps just print it with print(get_value(data)) in the end of the file and capture the printed lines with the VB script?
