How to call a phone using python?

Question

Python

What ways do you know to call (just dial, without speaking) a phone number?
Perhaps through the API of some service?
Ideally, reduce everything to a function:
call_phone('[phone]')
Will run on a machine with Win7, python 3.3.

Answer 1

I didn’t meet any services, I implemented a modem with a SIM card with the help (my need was in SMS).

Answer 2

It is important to understand here, are you interested in such an opportunity "in a vacuum" or do you need to send a real call?
I recommend not to bother with sending a call from "pure" python - there are utilities such as sipp and sipsak - they allow you to send a call from the command line, you can write a python binding for them if you like.
If you need to send a real call, then it's easier to use the click-to-call services of operators that work via http, as a rule. Accordingly, python can also be used for them.
