Developing a graphical user interface in Python / connecting GUI to other code?

Question

I just want to know if this is possible or if I need to look for other options...

I am trying to develop medical software for heart disease diagnosis, and already coded the machine learning algorithm to analyze patient data. It is a .py file, and the algorithm outputs a heart disease severity score from 0-4.

I would like to incorporate this algorithm into a desktop application that gives the user (a doctor) an input field for the given patient's information, and then allows the doctor to run the algorithm I have coded (ideally by clicking a button, or other intuitive process) and then view the results for this one patient.

Is this possible to do in Python / PyQT for developing the interface and connecting it to the algorithm?

Thanks.

Yes it is. PyQt might be the most stable way of doing that. – domochevski Jul 20 '18 at 20:00 — domochevski, Jul 20 '18 at 20:00

Yes, it is possible, and fairly straightforward too. Here is a decent PyQt5 tutorial series to start with.

Thank you! What would be the procedure to link a button to running the code file? – tyger2020 Jul 21 '18 at 02:16
