def run_external_scripts(paths,
                         show_values=False):

This function automates the running of external Python scripts in the order the user lists them.

Required Arguments:

1) paths (String List) - A string list of the file paths to the external Python scripts

The list must be in the order the user wants the scripts to execute.

Example

from wxdata import run_external_scripts

paths = [f"{path_to_script1},
         f"{path_to_script2}"]

run_external_scripts(paths)

In this example, we have 2 scripts denoted as script 1 and script 2.

Script1 will run BEFORE script2 as per the order of the path list we passed into run_external_scripts()

Optional Arguments:
