os.command giving Attribute error

Hi I am trying to rum a C *.o using python 2.6.5 as follows

import os
import sys
file_type = os.command('./file_type.o %s.txt 2>&1' % file_name)

And, it gives the error message :

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'command'

Being a beginner this might be a very trivial question, I request for the direction / help.

os.command doesn't exist, using os.system instead.

os.command() doesn't exist. It looks like you are looking for os.system()

There is no function named command in the os module, hence the error. You probably meant to call os.system() instead.
