OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied - Kolterdyx - Sep-06-2018

I'm trying to make a little program and i have to run an app called pad.py from another one called tarea1.py but when I try it replies this error:
(Directories are partly in spanish because I'm from Spain)

>>> subprocess.call(["/home/ciro/Escritorio/Programs/Automatic/pad.py"])

Error:Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 523, in call
    return Popen(*popenargs, **kwargs).wait()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 711, in __init__
    errread, errwrite)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 1343, in _execute_child
    raise child_exception
OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied

The code of tarea1.py app is this:

import subprocess
import time
import tkinter
import sys
from subprocess import call

password = 'patata'

while True:
	clave = input("Clave de acceso: ")
	if(clave == 'patata'):
		print('Acceso permitido.')
		time.sleep(1)
		subprocess.call(["printf","\033c"])
		subprocess.call(["home/ciro/Escritorio/Programs/Automatic/pad.py", "\033c"])
	else:
		print('Acceso denegado.')
		time.sleep(1)
		print('')
		subprocess.call(["printf", "'\033c'"])

I tried to use os.system() but it didn't work.

I hope someone can help me, please, i didn't find anything in Internet.

1) Check execute permission for pad.py: chmod +x pad.py
2) Don't forget to add a magic line (#!/bin/python or #!/custom/path/to/python/interpreter) to your code (pad.py)...

As an alternative, you could also prepend the command with python.

Or better, with sys.executable
