system(), exec(), the backtick operator `...`
and popen() should all do the job

when dealing with shell functions like output
redirection you should use system() as it
will first start a shell to run the command in

AND YOU SHOULD DEFINETLY CLICK THE DO'S AND DON'TS
LINK ON TOP OF THE ERROR SUBMISSION FORM NEXT TIME
