Tkinter FileDialog

Question 1

I figured it out on my own, with some help from the internet of course. My updated code is:

from Tkinter import *
import tkMessageBox
from scipy import stats
import csv


sample=[]


def load_file():

    fname = askopenfilename(filetypes = (("Text Files", ".txt"),
                            ("HTML Files", "*.html;*.htm"),
                                ("All Files", "*.*")))
    global sample
    if fname:
        print "uploading file...",fname
        try:
            print("""Here comes the file""")
        except:
            showerror("Open Source File", "Failed to read file\n'%s'" % fname)
        ifile  = open(fname, "rb")

        data = csv.reader(ifile,delimiter=' ')

        rownum = 0

        for row in data:
            colnum = 0
            d=[]
            for col in row:
                print '%s' % col
                d.append(float(col))
                colnum += 1
            sample.append(d)
            rownum += 1

        ifile.close()
        print sample


def choose():

        global sample
        if q1.get() == 1 and q2.get() == 1 and q3.get() == 1 and q4.get() == 2 and  q5.get() == 1 and q6.get() == 2 and q7.get() == 2 and q8.get() == 2 and q9.get() == 2 :

            tkMessageBox.showinfo('t-test', 't-value is %s, p=%s' %stats.ttest_1samp(sample[0], 0.50 ))
            #will do t-test here
            print sample
            # now sample list contains the data for doing t-test,
            #you just need to call t-test to get the results and show it on message box


        elif q1.get() == 1 and q2.get() == 2 and q3.get() == 1 and q4.get() == 1 and q5.get() == 2 and q6.get() == 2 and q7.get() == 2 and  q8.get() == 2 and q9.get() == 2:
             tkMessageBox.showinfo('z-test', 'test statistic is %s, p=%s'%stats.ttest_1samp(sample[0], 5.0))

        elif q1.get() == 1 and q2.get() == 1 and q3.get() == 2 and q4.get() == 2 and q5.get() == 1 and q6.get() == 2 and q7.get() == 1 and q8.get() == 2 and q9.get() == 2:
            tkMessageBox.showinfo('Paired t-test', 'test statistic is %s, p=%s'%stats.ttest_rel(sample[0], sample[1]))

             tkMessageBox.showinfo('Two sample z-test', 'test statistic is %s, p=%s'%stats.ttest_ind(sample[0], sample[1]))



        else:

Question 2

If all of the files you need to open are accessible from a central location you could have your if statement open the file they needed for them.

Try setting those files as variables:

t_test = r'Path\To\File\location\t-test.file'

and so on for the rest of your files.

Then, instead of telling them what to open just open it with os.system():

os.system(t_test)

Don't forget to import os with the rest of your imports.
