Can this work in a python script (without the need for it to run in command-line)? #26

I'm working on metagenomics and I have a dataset comprised of various identifications performed by different softwares. The dataset has this structure: Assignment | TaxID | Number_of_reads

I was adding the taxonomy using NCBITaxa to get the full taxonomy (from kingdom to genus/species) but its not working properly for some reason and I've seen your script does the exact same but its a command-line executable.

I wanted to ask whether or not you could either help me either by making it work in python.
