pass data result from python to Java variable by processbuilder
<p>I used process builder to run a python script from java. and i can sent the data from Java to python variable ( import sys to get data from Java) . and print out the python result in java.
for example: </p>

<pre><code>public static void main(String a[]){
try{

int number1 = 100;
int number2 = 200;
String searchTerm="water";

ProcessBuilder pb = new ProcessBuilder("C:/Python27/python","D://my_utils.py",""+number1,""+number2,""+searchTerm);
Process p = pb.start();

BufferedReader bfr = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));

System.out.println(".........start   process.........");  
String line = "";     
while ((line = bfr.readLine()) != null){
    System.out.println("Python Output: " + line);
}
System.out.println("........end   process.......");


}catch(Exception e){System.out.println(e);}
}
}
</code></pre>

<p>However, I do not know how to get back the result from python and pass the result to <strong>JAVA Variable</strong> for further use. How to do that?
I have issue with passing a list as a method argument in JAVA.
